Mauritius Expands E-Invoicing Mandate to Include Businesses with Turnover Over MUR 80 Million

  • Phased Implementation of E-Invoicing: The Mauritius Revenue Authority (MRA) has announced that, starting in the 2025-2026 financial year, suppliers with an annual turnover exceeding MUR 80 million (approximately €1.5 million) will be required to join the mandatory e-invoicing system.
  • Regulatory Background: The e-invoicing mandate was established through amendments to the VAT Act, necessitating businesses to connect electronically to the MRA’s system for registering all invoices, including credit and debit notes. Specific regulations on e-invoicing were published in September 2023.
  • Current Requirements and Preparation: As of May 15, 2024, businesses with a turnover exceeding MUR 100 million (approximately €1.9 million) must issue e-invoices. The new budget announcement broadens this requirement, and while the exact implementation date for the lower threshold has not been specified, affected businesses should start preparing their systems to comply with the forthcoming e-invoicing requirements.
