The <a href=\"https:\/\/arnifi.com\/blog\/role-of-fsc-in-mauritius\/\">Financial Services Commission (FSC)<\/a> amended its Financial Services (Consolidated Licensing and Fees) Rules, with the revised fee structure taking effect from 1 July 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The changes are particularly relevant to Global Business Companies (GBCs) and Authorised Companies, as both the processing fees and annual licence fees have increased.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is also an important deadline to keep in mind. Although annual fees normally fall due at the start of the FSC financial year, the Commission has exceptionally extended the payment deadline for the 2026\/27 cycle to 30 September 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For existing companies, this means higher recurring compliance costs. For new applicants, the revised fees should be included when comparing the overall cost of different Mauritius structures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-changed-in-mauritius-company-fees-in-2026\"><strong>What Changed in Mauritius Company Fees in 2026?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The FSC&#8217;s fee review followed the National Budget 2025\/26 and was implemented through amendments to the Financial Services (Consolidated Licensing and Fees) Rules. The amended rules were gazetted on 30 June 2026 and became effective on 1 July 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For GBCs and Authorised Companies, the key changes are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Higher processing fees<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Higher annual licence fees<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Revised first-year fee amounts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A higher ongoing cost of maintaining the structure<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The increase is much more pronounced for Authorised Companies because their previous fee base was considerably lower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-much-are-mauritius-gbc-fees-in-2026\"><strong>How Much Are Mauritius GBC Fees in 2026?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the FSC&#8217;s consolidated fee schedule, the processing fee for a Global Business Licence is now US$600, compared with US$500 previously. The fixed annual fee is now US$2,600, compared with US$1,950. Authorised Companies have also seen a substantially larger increase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"687\" src=\"https:\/\/arnifi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image-1024x687.png\" alt=\"How Much Are Mauritius GBC Fees in 2026 Image\" class=\"wp-image-26938\" srcset=\"https:\/\/arnifi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image-1024x687.png 1024w, https:\/\/arnifi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image-300x201.png 300w, https:\/\/arnifi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image-768x515.png 768w, https:\/\/arnifi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image.png 1088w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>There is also an annual registration fee payable to the Registrar of Companies, which is separate from the FSC fee. For a new GBC, therefore, the regulatory cost should be considered as more than just the headline incorporation or licensing fee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The FSC&#8217;s current schedule lists a US$600 processing fee and a US$1,400 fixed annual fee for an Authorised Company. That makes the change particularly significant for businesses that previously selected an Authorised Company because of its relatively low recurring regulatory cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-when-do-the-new-mauritius-company-fees-apply\"><strong>When Do the New Mauritius Company Fees Apply?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The amended fee rules took effect on 1 July 2026. This date should not be confused with the payment deadline for the 2026\/27 renewal cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The FSC subsequently confirmed that the deadline for annual licence-fee payments for the financial year beginning 1 July 2026 has been extended to 30 September 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In practical terms:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Revised fees effective:<\/strong> 1 July 2026<br><strong>2026\/27 payment deadline:<\/strong> 30 September 2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-the-mauritius-company-fee-payment-deadline-for-2026\"><strong>What Is the Mauritius Company Fee Payment Deadline for 2026?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The deadline for the relevant FSC annual fees for 2026\/27 is 30 September 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The FSC has made the extension specifically for this renewal cycle. Licensees can make payments through the FSC One Platform, and the Commission has also provided an alternative arrangement for cases where payment cannot be completed through the platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Businesses should therefore confirm their applicable licence, calculate the amount due and arrange payment before the deadline rather than treating 30 September as an ordinary annual due date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-happens-if-mauritius-company-fees-are-not-paid-on-time\"><strong>What Happens If Mauritius Company Fees Are Not Paid on Time?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Failure to pay the applicable fees can affect a company&#8217;s regulatory standing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The consequences depend on the relevant licence and circumstances, but businesses should not assume that an unpaid annual fee is simply an outstanding administrative expense that can be dealt with later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maintaining good standing is particularly important for companies that rely on their Mauritius structure for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Banking<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Investment holding<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cross-border transactions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Group ownership<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>International counterparties<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Companies should therefore deal with annual fees alongside their other recurring compliance obligations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-are-mauritius-gbc-and-authorised-company-fees-determined\"><strong>How Are Mauritius GBC and Authorised Company Fees Determined?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The amount payable depends on the licence or authorisation held.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The FSC&#8217;s consolidated fee schedule sets out fees for different licences and activities, including GBCs and Authorised Companies. Some fees are stated in US dollars, while others are stated in Mauritian rupees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This means businesses should check the applicable FSC category as there is not one general \u201cMauritius company fee\u201d applied to every entity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-the-difference-between-a-mauritius-gbc-and-an-authorised-company\"><strong>What Is the Difference Between a Mauritius GBC and an Authorised Company?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/arnifi.com\/blog\/global-vs-domestic-licence-mauritius-guide\/\">GBCs and Authorised Companies<\/a> are both used in international business structures, but they are not identical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Factor<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>GBC<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Authorised Company<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Typical purpose<\/td><td>Global business and investment structures<\/td><td>International business conducted outside Mauritius<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Management requirements<\/td><td>Subject to Mauritius-based requirements<\/td><td>Business activities and control generally outside Mauritius<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Administration<\/td><td>Management company<\/td><td>Registered agent<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>2026 annual FSC fee<\/td><td><strong>US$2,600<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>US$1,400<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The choice between the two should be based on the company&#8217;s actual activities, management arrangements, substance requirements and wider structure-not simply on the annual licence fee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-do-the-2026-fee-increases-matter\"><strong>Why Do the 2026 Fee Increases Matter?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For an existing company, the immediate effect is straightforward: maintaining the structure now costs more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That increase can affect:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Annual compliance budgets<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cost projections for holding structures<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Group-company maintenance<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Investment structures<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Long-term international business planning<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The impact is particularly noticeable for Authorised Companies because the annual fee has increased from US$350 to US$1,400.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For new businesses, the change is another reason to look at <strong>total recurring costs<\/strong>, rather than comparing jurisdictions based only on incorporation fees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-do-the-higher-fees-relate-to-mauritius-substance-requirements\"><strong>How Do the Higher Fees Relate to Mauritius&#8217; Substance Requirements?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The fee change should also be considered alongside Mauritius&#8217; broader regulatory framework for global business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A company should have a clear commercial reason for maintaining its Mauritius structure and understand the applicable requirements around management, control and substance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For GBCs in particular, the regulatory framework includes requirements connected with the company&#8217;s activities and its management in Mauritius.

Businesses should therefore factor the revised fees into their annual compliance budgets and reassess the overall cost of maintaining their structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For companies considering a new Mauritius setup, the decision should go beyond the licence fee. The right structure depends on the business purpose, management arrangements, substance requirements and ongoing compliance obligations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Arnifi can support businesses with Mauritius company setup, structuring, accounting and ongoing compliance.
