Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to open a business bank account?
Typically 5-10 business days from application to account activation. Some banks are faster (SBM, ABC) while others take longer (MCB). We'll expedite where possible.
Do you handle the application for me?
No - you must be present for the bank application as you're signing documents. However, we prepare everything, schedule appointments, and can accompany you to the bank.
Can foreigners open business bank accounts in Mauritius?
Yes, but requirements are stricter (passport, proof of address abroad, sometimes reference letters). The process takes longer (2-4 weeks). We help non-residents navigate this.
What if my application is rejected?
Rare if properly prepared. If rejected, we'll identify the issue, fix it, and resubmit or try a different bank. This support is included in our fee.
Can I open accounts at multiple banks?
Yes! Many businesses do this for backup or to access different services. Our fee covers helping with one bank account. Additional banks: Rs 1,500 each.
