Mauritius has the largest proportion of Indian-origin residents of any country in the world -- commonly cited at roughly two-thirds of the population -- tracing to 19th-century indentured labourers, alongside deep ongoing business and investment ties to India through Mauritius's Global Business Company sector. Legal questions that reach back into India -- property, succession, taxation -- apply the same underlying Indian law regardless of country of residence, alongside Mauritius-specific rules such as its Hague Apostille Convention membership since 1968 (one of the longest-standing memberships this platform covers), the Code Civil Mauricien's forced heirship rules (which apply only to Mauritius-situated property), and the India-Mauritius tax treaty. Seven dedicated Mauritius guides are live below.
