Entry details
Holders of a Cape Verde passport do not need a visa when visiting Mauritius for up to 90 days. The Cape Verde passport currently ranks #135 of 199 worldwide, with 65 destinations reachable visa-free or via visa on arrival / eTA.
Mauritius is notably open to foreign passports, admitting 182 of the world's 198 other passports without a prior visa; its own passport ranks #67 with 128 open destinations. As fellow Africa countries, their rules are frequently tied to regional arrangements. The relationship isn't symmetric: Cape Verde travellers get easier access here than Mauritius citizens get in return (visa on arrival).
In the opposite direction, Mauritius citizens travelling to Cape Verde face: visa on arrival.
