Guide last updated October 18, 2026. Always verify with official sources before travel.

What you need

  • Passport valid for at least 6 months beyond the intended stay
  • Return or onward flight ticket
  • Proof of accommodation (hotel booking or host details)
  • Proof of sufficient funds for the length of stay, which may be checked by immigration
  • No visa application form, photo, or biometrics are required for entry itself
  • Travel health insurance is recommended though not mandatory
  • Completing the online Passenger Information / health declaration where required by current Mauritian entry rules

Visa types

  • No visa category applies for the visa-free tourist entry
  • Business visitors attending meetings can also use the visa-free entry provided they are not taking up local employment
  • Travelers wishing to work, study, retire, or stay longer than 90 days must apply for the relevant permit in advance through the Passport and Immigration Office, details available at passport.govmu.org

Entry conditions

  • Egyptian citizens may stay visa-free for up to 90 days
  • Paid local employment is not permitted during this stay
  • On arrival, present your passport, return ticket, and be ready to show proof of accommodation and funds if asked
  • Extensions beyond the initial visa-free period can sometimes be requested at the Passport and Immigration Office in Port Louis, subject to approval and a fee
  • Entry conditions can change, so check passport.govmu.org shortly before travel for any updated requirements

Fees & processing time

  • No visa fee for the 90-day visa-free entry
  • No processing time, as there is no pre-travel application for tourism
  • If an extension is requested locally, a fee applies and is set by the Passport and Immigration Office
  • Budget only for your flight, accommodation, and any applicable airport taxes included in your ticket

Tips for Egypt travelers

  • Keep your return ticket and accommodation proof easily accessible for the immigration check on arrival
  • Check passport.govmu.org close to your travel date for any updated health or entry declarations
  • If extending your stay, apply before the initial 90 days expires rather than afterward
  • Mauritius has strong tourism infrastructure, so standard hotel bookings are usually sufficient proof of accommodation
  • For stays beyond 90 days (e.g. the Premium Visa or retirement scheme), apply well in advance through the official portal
