Frequently asked questions
How much income tax do I pay in Mauritius if I earn MUR 1.2 million per year?
Mauritius uses a progressive tax system with three brackets. Your first MUR 500,000 is tax-free, the next MUR 500,000 is taxed at 10%, and the remaining MUR 200,000 is taxed at 20%, giving you a total income tax of MUR 90,000 for the year.
What are CSG and NSF contributions in Mauritius?
CSG (Contribution Sociale Generalisee) and NSF (National Savings Fund) are mandatory social contributions deducted from your salary. If you earn above MUR 50,000 monthly, you pay 3% CSG and 1% NSF employee levy, both calculated on your gross income.
Is there a Fair Share Contribution I need to know about?
Yes, if your taxable income exceeds MUR 12 million, you'll pay an additional 15% Fair Share Contribution surcharge on the amount above that threshold. This applies to high earners and is calculated after income tax.
What's the difference between tax-deductible and non-deductible contributions?
CSG contributions are tax-deductible, meaning they reduce your taxable income before income tax is calculated. NSF employee levy is not tax-deductible, so it's paid from your after-tax income.
Do personal reliefs or dependent deductions reduce my tax bill in Mauritius?
Personal reliefs like dependent deductions and medical insurance deductions are available in Mauritius, but they depend on your individual circumstances and are not modeled in the standard calculator. You should consult with a local tax advisor to determine what reliefs apply to your specific situation.
