However, they will have to meet the normal immigration requirements below:
(i) valid return ticket,
(ii) proof of hotel accommodation/booking; or letter of accommodation mentioning full names of host and guest, copy of utility bill from host, their passport numbers and exact dates of visit (DATES SHOULD INVARIABLY TALLY WITH RETURN TICKET),
(iii) a valid passport (to allow re-entry into Australia),
(iv) proof of sufficient funds for upkeep in Mauritius,
(v) travel insurance,
(vi) eligibility to enter the country of origin after your stay in Mauritius, or any other countries being visited en route,
(vii) visitor should not engage in any gainful activities during the stay in Mauritius.

For business visits, same as above applies, plus a business invitation letter or a company letter explaining business visit.

In case of a foreigner who is a resident in Australia, and assuming no visa is required for citizens of their country to travel to Mauritius, their eligibility to re-enter Australia (on a permanent residence visa or other visa) would be checked.
