What are the review of Mauritius for moving for tax purpose as no tax if not remit here?

[thedark]

does this also work with any credit‍ card? So personal CC?

One more question.
What if I am freelancer and would register⁠ my business in Mauritius as Self Employed with the deposit of 35.000$.

I work 7⁤ months per year in Mauritius and become tax resident. I move to another country and⁣ work there for 5 Months. (Dubai, Indonesia, Thailand (DTA), ...)
I have a fixed flat⁢ in Mauritius, but not in the other country.

Would this work to:
A) reduce my︀ mauritian sourced-income below the solidary levy threshold of 3.000.000 MUR ~ 66.666$ (as long it's︁ not remitted)
B) not pay taxes in the other countries because either they are tax︂ free or they have a DTA? (let's keep it on taxes for now, I know︃ that a work permit is a different thing)
C) have a fixed home-base where I︄ can invoice my clients from (whole year same address on my invoices) and still work︅ in other countries?

Is this common practice or will this cause any trouble? Maybe you︆ have a similar setup?

Yes, also cash bills in the pocket count since its remitted as⁠ well.
If its a loan by a foreign company with substance elsewhere and where one⁤ is not the only hidden shareholder, that works, but surely not with a single member⁣ llc. 😉

There is a difference between the theory and real world indeed.
I see in Mauritius‌ some people remitting crypto without any problem (no taxation, questions) for the moment. But if‍ you ask to banks if there are crypto friendly, they will probably say no... but⁠ let you withdraw. There is a grey area. The same with foreign CC used locally.⁤

a)have your company outside of mauritius and don't transfer funds to mauritus and you︆ don't need to pay taxes.Make payments via cc and it won't be taxed either.

c)Mauritius has a non dom like cyprus which means you need to stay 270 days in︇ 3 years or 90 per year however i don't exactly know how many days you︈ need to stay in the first year.

Sure, without going into details, the geographic location alone gives⁣ indication how it works in practice 😉 and I would not expect German style enforcement.

how did the move go? I own and live‍ in Cape town now for 8+ years. Intending to move permanently from EU. Aiming for⁠ a non dom style tax heaven setup. Very curious why I am hearing so little⁤ about having a domicile - yet sepending less tha 183 days per year in the⁣ country and not be taxable on worldwide passive income.
