Property Development Scheme (PDS)

Properties are large-scale programmes (Marina, Golf-Resorts, etc.) mainly developed in the coastal regions (North, West, East) and offer a variety of luxury, freehold properties: flats, duplexes or individual villas, sold at no less than US$ 500,000. 

These programmes offer luxury services and facilities to residents (golf course, marina with mooring facilities and other services, sports facilities, shops, wellness centres, spas, and other "à la carte" services). Every owner of an IRS will receive a residence permit for him and his family (children or dependents up to the age of 24) for the time he owns his property.

Integrated Resort Scheme (IRS)

Any non-citizen, with or without an occupancy permit, residence permit, permanent residence permit, may purchase apartment in an R+2 complex. 

The apartment must, of course, be in a building at least two floors above the ground floor and built on freehold land, as described above.

Contrary to what many people think, a non-citizen can buy one or more apartments ANYWHERE in the building.

The Non-Citizens (Property Restriction) Act allows foreigners to purchase flats in condominiums of at least two storeys above the ground floor (G+2) with the prior approval of the Economic Development Board (EDB). 

Ground +2 Scheme (G+2)

The Non-Citizens (Property Restriction) Act (the ‘NCPR Act’) sets out the different ways in which non-citizens are able to acquire a residential property.​ A non-citizen may only purchase or acquire one property of the
NCPR Act being :
 

a) A residential property (stand-alone house, villa, apartment, etc) constructed on land not exceeding 0.5276 hectare (1.25 arpent)
b) Buy a land or a plot of serviced land, provided that the area does not exceed 0.5276 hectare (1.25 arpent)

Only one residential property may be purchased or acquired under the NCPR Act by an eligible non-citizen under this scheme.

Acquisition above USD 500,000

Under this Scheme, foreigners investing more than half a million dollars in Mauritius, are eligible to permanent residence, along with their spouse and children under 18 years of age. For children above 18, an additional deposit of USD 100,000 is required.

Permanent Residence (PR) 

The IHS (Invest Hotel Scheme) allows hoteliers to finance the development of their hotel by granting them the right to sell villas, suites, rooms or other units forming part of the hotel to residents or non-residents. 

The unit sold will have to be rented out to the hotel by the investor and may be occupied for a maximum of 45 days per year. 

The purchase price of an individual hotel villa shall not be less than USD 500,000 (excluding taxes). Any other unit will not have a sales price restriction.

Invest Hotel Scheme (IHS)

Real Estate Scheme (RES) properties are smaller property schemes, which can only be developed by developers on land areas ranging from 4220 m2 (1 acre) to 100,000 m2 (10 Ha) and which have no restrictions imposed by the authorities on the minimum sale price of a unit.

The purchase of a RES property will only qualify you for a residence permit if the purchase price exceeds USD 375,000. 

Below that, you can own the property, but you cannot obtain a residence permit. You can therefore stay in Mauritius according to the immigration laws in force, i.e. not more than 6 months per year, or apply for a residence permit.

RES properties are mainly intended for foreign investors, professionals or retirees who have chosen Mauritius to live, work or enjoy their holidays more regularly.
