How entry requirements work
What a traveller needs for Mauritius depends on their nationality and the purpose and length of their stay. Most destinations use one of a few entry routes — the categories below are general definitions, not a determination for any particular passport. Requirements and fees vary, so always confirm the current rules with the official source.
Visa-free / visa on arrival
Some nationalities can enter for short stays without a visa in advance, or obtain one at the border.
eVisa
An electronic visa applied for online before travel, usually with a fee and a processing window.
eTA / travel authorisation
A pre-travel authorisation that screens eligibility — not a visa itself, but required before boarding.
Visa in advance
A traditional visa arranged through an embassy, consulate or official portal ahead of the trip.
