For many Mauritians, travelling abroad is an opportunity to unwind, discover new places and enjoy new experiences. But did you know that you can also make the most of your trip before you even leave Mauritius?
With Tax Free Shopping, eligible travellers can enjoy tax-free purchases at participating local shops, making it possible to save on a wide range of products while supporting local businesses. By planning your shopping ahead of your departure, you can make the most of this benefit and enjoy a more convenient shopping experience.
What is Tax Free Shopping?
Tax Free Shopping allows eligible travellers to purchase qualifying goods from registered retailers in Mauritius without the VAT included in the purchase price, subject to the applicable conditions.
Whether you are looking for fashion, jewellery, electronics, accessories, gifts or souvenirs, you can enjoy tax-free shopping at participating stores before your trip.
The process is designed to be convenient: instead of having to carry your purchases around or fit them into your luggage, you can arrange to have them delivered directly to the airport for collection before departure.
Why plan your shopping before travelling?
Leaving your shopping until the last minute can mean missing out on opportunities and making rushed decisions. Planning ahead allows you to:
- Make the most of your savings: Identify participating shops and explore the products available before making your purchases.
- Shop at your own pace: Take the time to compare products, discover local brands and make informed choices.
- Enjoy greater convenience: Arrange your purchases and airport delivery in advance, without having to worry about transporting them yourself.
- Support local businesses: Discover the variety of products and brands available in Mauritius while benefiting from Tax Free Shopping.
A little preparation before your trip can make a real difference to your overall experience.
