Company Administration in Mauritius

Ongoing registered office, nominee director, compliance and administrative services to keep your Mauritius company in good standing year-round.

Incorporating a company in Mauritius is only the beginning. Every company — whether a GBC, Authorised Company or domestic entity — must maintain continuous compliance with its statutory and regulatory obligations to remain in good standing and to preserve the benefits of its structure. This includes maintaining a registered office, meeting annual filing deadlines, renewing licences, conducting and documenting board meetings, managing changes in ownership or directorship, and fulfilling AML/CFT obligations. For international clients who are not resident in Mauritius, engaging a licensed Management Company to handle these ongoing responsibilities is not merely convenient — for a GBC, it is a legal requirement. Our company administration service is designed to provide a comprehensive, reliable and transparent administrative backbone so that clients can focus on their business activities with confidence that all compliance obligations are being met.

Core administration services

Registered Office

Every Mauritius company must maintain a registered office address in Mauritius to which all official correspondence, regulatory notices and legal documents are directed. Our registered office service ensures that all documents are received promptly, scanned and forwarded to you, and that any time-sensitive regulatory communications are escalated immediately.

Nominee Director Services

For GBC companies that require resident directors (two resident individuals are mandatory for a GBC), we provide nominee director services through experienced professionals who are resident in Mauritius. Our nominee directors participate in board meetings, sign resolutions and fulfil the substance requirements — acting in accordance with agreed governance protocols and within clearly defined parameters.

Annual Compliance and Licence Renewal

We manage the full calendar of annual obligations: FSC licence renewal applications and fee payments, annual returns to the Registrar of Companies, annual reporting to the Mauritius Revenue Authority, and filing of audited accounts where required. We maintain a compliance calendar for each client entity and issue advance reminders to avoid missed deadlines.

Change Management and Regulatory Notifications

Any change in a company's directors, shareholders, registered office, constitution or principal activities must be notified to the FSC and/or the Registrar of Companies within prescribed timeframes. We manage all such notifications, prepare the required resolutions and supporting documents, and ensure the regulatory registers are updated accurately.

How we work

01

Onboarding and compliance review

For newly formed companies, we build the compliance calendar from day one. For companies transferring their administration to us, we conduct a full compliance review to identify any outstanding filings, expired licences or gaps in the statutory records.

02

Annual compliance programme

We maintain a rolling compliance calendar covering all filing deadlines, licence renewals, annual meeting requirements and payment obligations. You receive advance notice of each upcoming obligation well before the deadline.

03

Board support and governance

We prepare board meeting agendas, draft resolutions, coordinate meeting logistics (including virtual participation), maintain minutes and ensure that board decisions are properly documented and signed.

04

Ongoing liaison with regulators

We act as the primary point of contact with the FSC, Registrar of Companies and other regulatory bodies, handling routine correspondence, responding to regulatory queries and escalating any matters that require client input.

الأسئلة الشائعة

Is it legally required to use a Management Company for a GBC?
Yes. Under Mauritius law, every GBC must be administered by a licensed Management Company holding a Category 1 or Category 2 Management Licence issued by the FSC. The Management Company acts as registered agent and is responsible for ensuring the company's compliance with FSC requirements.
What happens if a GBC misses an annual filing deadline?
Late filings attract penalties from the FSC and/or the Registrar of Companies. Persistent non-compliance can result in the suspension or revocation of the GBC licence, which would also affect the company's tax residency status and treaty eligibility. Maintaining a proactive compliance calendar is essential.
Can the registered office address be used as the company's principal business address?
The registered office is the official address for regulatory and legal correspondence. While it can technically be used as a business address, clients who require a more operational presence — for substance purposes or for commercial reasons — may need a separate office arrangement. We can advise on appropriate options.
What is the difference between a nominee director and an independent director?
A nominee director is a professional who acts as a director on behalf of the beneficial owner, typically providing the residency requirement for a GBC. An independent director brings external expertise and governance oversight. Both can coexist on the same board. For substance purposes, resident directors must be actively involved in decision-making — not merely rubber-stamp signatories.
