Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to ship from China to Mauritius?
Current rates for shipping from China to Mauritius start at USD 556.32/KG via Sea DDP w/Tax. For 100 KG, the estimated total is approximately USD 55,632, with all duties paid under DDP. Final landed cost depends on the Import VAT plus duty 5–35%; pre-shipment inspection common applied by the national customs service.
What duties and taxes apply when importing into Mauritius?
Imports into Mauritius are assessed by the national customs service. The applicable regime is: Import VAT plus duty 5–35%; pre-shipment inspection common. The duty-free / de-minimis position is No practical de-minimis on most routes. Under our DDP service these charges are pre-paid and included in the per-KG price, so there is nothing to settle on arrival.
Is air or sea freight better for 100 KG to Mauritius?
For 100 KG to Mauritius, air is usually better on total landed cost despite a higher per-KG rate, because the 30–45 day ocean transit (plus 7–21 days (congestion common) dwell) raises inventory cost. Air also unlocks volume discounts above 100 KG.
What documents are required for customs clearance in Mauritius?
the national customs service typically requires: (1) commercial invoice with HS codes and declared value; (2) packing list with weights and dimensions; (3) bill of lading or air waybill; (4) certificate of origin (may lower duty); and (5) any product-specific certification (Pre-shipment conformity certificate often mandatory). Under DDP we prepare and file these for you.
How long does shipping from China to Mauritius take?
Door-to-door transit to Mauritius: air freight 5–10 business days, sea LCL 30–50 days, sea FCL 28–45 days. On arrival, allow roughly 7–21 days (congestion common) of clearance/dwell at the gateway. All times include customs clearance under DDP.
In what currency are rates to Mauritius quoted and paid?
Freight to Mauritius is quoted and invoiced in USD; the local currency on the destination side is USD (freight priced in USD). Payment is typically due before departure (T/T or PayPal), and because it's DDP you settle the full landed cost once — no destination collect charges.
Can I track my shipment from China to Mauritius?
Yes. Air shipments to Mauritius get an air waybill (AWB) trackable within 24 hours of departure; sea shipments are tracked by bill-of-lading through the carrier portal. We push status at key milestones: departure, arrival at the gateway, clearance by the national customs service, and final delivery.
When is the busy season for shipping to Mauritius?
Capacity to Mauritius tightens around Oct–Dec, on top of the China-side surcharge windows of Chinese New Year (Jan/Feb) and Golden Week (early Oct). Booking 1–2 weeks earlier during these windows protects both space and rate.
