Mauritius Visa Extension, Renewal and Immigration Office Guidance

Travelers who need more time in Mauritius should understand extension rules before the visa expires. Extension options depend on the visa type, nationality, immigration decision, and local rules.

Can You Extend a Mauritius Visa?

Extension or renewal depends on the visa category, nationality, local immigration decision, and whether the request is made before expiry. Apply before the authorized stay ends, keep passport and visa copies ready, and never assume an extension is automatic.
