Your Mauritius Registered Office Address — A Statutory Obligation
The Companies Act 2001 of Mauritius directs that every company have a registered office situated in the Republic at all times.

Effortlessly Compliant
The Purpose of a Registered Office for Your Mauritius Company
The Companies Act 2001 requires every Mauritius company to have a registered office situated in the Republic at all times. This is the official address for receiving statutory notices, legal process, and correspondence from the Registrar of Companies.
Point of Legal Contact
All formal communications from courts, regulators, and the Registrar of Companies are delivered to your company at its registered office address.
Statutory Address of Record
Your company's registered office is publicly filed with the Registrar, meeting disclosure requirements without the use of personal addresses.
Continuous Obligation
Mauritius law requires the registered office to remain active without interruption. Non-compliance can attract fines and affect your company's good standing.
Professional Standing
A Mauritius-based office address underscores your company's legitimacy in the jurisdiction, supporting relationships with banks and commercial partners.
Mauritius Legal Framework Governing Registered Offices
The Companies Act 2001 of Mauritius compels every company to maintain a registered office situated in the Republic. The address is the statutory location for receipt of legal process, notices from the Registrar of Companies, and all official government correspondence.
Lifelong Corporate Obligation
Every Mauritius company must have a registered office from incorporation. The obligation is continuous — it applies every day the company remains on the register.
Physical Premises Only
The Companies Act specifies that the registered office must be an actual physical location in Mauritius. Virtual addresses and PO boxes are not legally acceptable.
Duty to Report Changes
A change of registered office must be notified to the Registrar of Companies within the timeframe prescribed by the Act. The update is effective only once the Registrar records it.
Sanctions for Non-Compliance
Companies that fail to maintain a registered office may incur fines and other penalties under the Act. Prolonged non-compliance can jeopardise the company's standing on the register.
