Mauritius's All in One Travel Form Is Mandatory, and an e-Visa Is Planned: What Travellers Need to Know

Mauritius has one requirement that applies to every arriving visitor now and one change that has been announced but not yet introduced. Here is how to tell them apart.

What is the All in One Travel Form?
A single online form that every traveller to Mauritius must complete before arrival. It combines the immigration, health and customs declarations that used to be separate.

Is it optional?
No. Official guidance states that you must complete it online before you arrive. It is free, but it is not a formality you can skip.

What do I do with it?
Once submitted, the form generates a QR code. Print it and show it on arrival. A copy on your phone is useful as a backup, but have the printed version ready.

Is the form a visa?
No. It is a declaration. Travellers who need a visa for Mauritius need one in addition to the form; travellers who do not still need the form.

Who needs a visa?
That depends on nationality. Many nationalities can visit Mauritius without a visa for a limited stay, with the length depending on the passport held. Others must apply in advance. Check your own nationality before booking.

I read that Mauritius is introducing an e-visa. Is that true?
It has been announced. The Mauritian national budget for 2026 to 2027 includes a measure to introduce an e-visa system, allowing non-citizens to apply for entry authorisation before travelling.

No implementation date has been published. Neither has the list of nationalities it will cover, nor the conditions. As of October 2026, the immigration authority has made no announcement of a launch.

Should I wait for it?
No. Plan your trip on the rules that apply today. If you need a visa now, apply through the current process. Treat any website already offering a Mauritius e-visa with caution.

Will the e-visa replace the travel form?
Nothing published says so. Assume both will be needed until the authorities say otherwise.

What should I do?
Complete the All in One Travel Form before departure and print the QR code. Check whether your nationality needs a visa, and if it does, apply through the process currently in place.
