Mauritius plans to amend tax treaties with Oman and Rwanda.
The Mauritius Revenue Authority has announced that discussions are in progress to revise the protocols for the 1998 tax treaty with Oman and the 2013 tax treaty with Rwanda. So far Mauritius has concluded 46 tax treaties and is party to a series of treaties under negotiation.
A tax treaty is an agreement between two countries designed to address the problem of double taxation on income, whether passive or active. Such treaties typically specify how much tax each country can impose on a person’s income, assets, estate, or wealth. These agreements are also known as Double Tax Agreements (DTAs).
Any changes, expected to take the form of an amending protocol, would mark the first modification to the treaty and would require completion, signature, and ratification before becoming effective.
Earlier, Rwanda and Mauritius officials met on 11 August 2025 to discuss their bilateral relationship, focusing on potential updates to the income tax treaty signed in 2013.
