Scores
Visa
A fresh allowance each time you enter. Border runs may reset it, but repeated same-day runs draw scrutiny.
Non-Schengen — days spent here do not burn your Schengen 90/180 allowance.
Free to apply. One of the easiest approvals on this list.
Most nomad visa applications require proof of health cover for the full permit duration — here that's 12 months.
Subscription model, cancel anytime. Check whether motorbike accidents are covered — they often are not without a local licence.

Tax
Tax year runs July to June, not January to December. Your 183-day count resets on the tax-year boundary, not on 1 January.
NON-CALENDAR TAX YEAR: 1 July to 30 June. Flat 15% income tax; foreign income not remitted to Mauritius is generally not taxed.
Foreign-sourced income is generally exempt for nomad-permit holders here.
The honest note
Free visa, 15% flat tax, English-speaking, safe. Isolated and car-dependent; flights are expensive.
