The Republic of Mauritius is hopeful of opening its borders fully for international travellers starting from October 1 this year. From October 1, those visiting with a valid PCR negative report obtained 72 hours before their departure will be welcome and able to explore the island freely without any restrictions.
Although opened partially from mid-July, currently only vaccinated guests who are ready to stay in a ‘resort bubble’ for 14 days minimum are allowed to visit Mauritius and explore the destination.
Arvind Bundhun, Director of Mauritius Tourism Promotion Authority (MTPA), said: “Mauritius is delighted to see the world opening up again for travel. We have been welcoming international visitors to our island since the middle of July and the ‘resort bubbles’ have proven a great success.
“We are looking forward to the next stage of our reopening on 1st October when vaccinated visitors will be able to explore the island without restriction from the moment of their arrival. The safety and security of Mauritian residents, citizens and guests remain paramount.”
As per MTPA, 68 per cent of the Mauritian population has received at least one dose of the vaccine and nearly 48 per cent has been administered both doses. The Mauritian government decided in January to prioritise tourism workers and hotel staff in the vaccine rollout to ensure visitors will be welcomed into a safe and secure environment in Mauritius.
