Visa-On-Arrival To Boost Tourism To Mauritius - Look Out - Express Travel & Tour The recent decision by the mauritius government to provide visa on arrival fora 15day or less trip to Mauritius is a strategic effort to augment tourism http://www.expresstravelandtourism.com/200411/lookout02.shtml

Express Textile Group Sites ExpressIndia Indian Express Financial Express Home ... Look Out Story Email page Print page Visa-On-Arrival To Boost Tourism To Mauritius Lakshmi Subramanian - Chennai The recent decision by the Mauritius government to provide visa on arrival for a 15-day or less trip to Mauritius is a strategic effort to augment tourism numbers from India. With the only pre-requisites being a confirmed return air ticket and sufficient funds, Mauritius expects to soon become a sought after destination. Explains Rajesh Bushgeet, manager for South India, Air Mauritius, "We will be able to attract more tourists from India as the procedure is much simpler now. Tourists can now easily plan a trip to Mauritius for a period of one week to 15 days. This scheme will be particularly useful to tourists and business investors as about 30 per cent of Indians travel to Mauritius on short notice." This new introduction will be a boon to the Chennai market as the Mauritius government does not have a consulate office in the state unlike in Mumbai and Delhi. If one has to take a look at the tourist traffic, a major portion of tourists to Mauritius are from Delhi, Mumbai and Chennai. Adds Bushgeet, "There have been several requests from the South to remove the visa requirement, as there is no consulate office. In addition, the deep cultural association between India and Mauritius prompted us to take this decision."

Help EDITIONS Change to World Monday, 17 June, 2002, 14:18 GMT 15:18 UK Mauritius raises tax rate Mauritius relies heavily on tourism Mauritius has raised its value added tax (VAT) rate from 12% to 15%. The rise was its second since last summer when the rate was 10%. Mauritius raised its VAT rate in part to fund past spending which has pushed its budget deficit to 6% of its gross domestic product. The rise should help "reducing the budget deficit to around 3% by the year 2005/06 while, at the same time, investing massively in priority sectors", Finance Minister Paul Berenger said. Extra earnings A three percentage points rise in VAT should help the Mauritius government rack up an additional $66m in revenue, analysts have calculated. Beyond covering past spending, the extra cash is set to be spent on education, information technology, the environment and infrastructure, as well as housing. Mauritius' economy, which is based on sugar and textiles, as well as tourism, grew by about 5.6% during the year to April.

You are here allRefer Reference Mauritius History ... Mauritius Mauritius GOVERNMENT AND POLITICS Structure of Government The 1968 constitution proclaims that Mauritius is a "democratic state" and that the constitution is the supreme law of the land. It guarantees the fundamental rights and freedoms of the people, including the right to hold private property and to be free from racial or other discrimination. Fundamental rights can only be suspended during wars or states of emergency, which must be duly declared by the parliament and reviewed every six months. The political structure is patterned to a large extent on the British system. As in Britain, the political party that can gain support from a majority in parliament chooses the prime minister, who, along with the cabinet, wields political power. The constitution also provides for three important commissionsthe Judicial and Legal Service Commission, the Public Services Commission, and the Police Service Commissionas well as an ombudsman. The commissions oversee the appointment of government officials; the ombudsman investigates official misconduct. The country's legal system is based on the Napoleonic Code and English common law. The Supreme Court heads the judicial system and has the power to interpret the constitution and to judge the constitutionality of legislation brought to its attention. Appointed by the prime minister and president, the chief justice helps select five other judges on the court. The Supreme Court also serves as the Court of Criminal Appeal and the Court of Civil Appeal. Mauritius continues to refer legal and constitutional matters of undeterminable jurisdiction to Britain's Privy Council. Lower courts having original jurisdiction over various kinds of cases include the Intermediate Court, the Industrial Court, and ten district courts.
