Processing Fee for Parcels, Packets and Trade Samples, imported by Post or Courier

The Mauritius Revenue Authority (MRA) informs economic operators and the public that, taking into consideration the resources and costs of services incurred by MRA in the clearance of goods imported by post or courier, a non-refundable processing fee will be applicable per consignment as from 01 September 2026.

Hence, any person, submitting a declaration for the clearance of goods, imported by post or courier not being merchandise for sale, under Category II (of a value not exceeding Rs 1,000) and under Category III (of a value exceeding Rs 1,000), shall pay a non-refundable processing fee of Rs. 150.

  1. For goods of Category II (of a value not exceeding Rs 1,000), the processing fee shall be collected by the agent through whom the goods have been imported and the latter shall not later than 30 working days after the end of every month, remit the fees collected to the MRA through one of the following payment options –
    1. Cash or Cheque drawn to “Mauritius Revenue Authority”;
    2. Tradenet Electronic Payment System (TEPS); or
    3. e-service   “Mobile   Payment   of   duties   and   taxes”,   available   at: https://www.mra.mu/index.php/eservices1/customs

 

At the beginning of October 2026 and thereafter at the beginning of every month, MRA will provide, via email, to each agent an invoice, specifying the amount of processing fees accrued during that previous month.

For the proper implementation of this measure, each agent is required to communicate by 15 September 2026 his email address to MRA at: stakeholders.customs@mra.mu, to which the monthly invoice will be sent.

Agents are also requested to keep a record of goods under Category II imported through them during a month which may be reconciled with the invoice issued by MRA.

B.  For goods of Category III (of a value exceeding Rs. 1,000), the processing fee will be included in the Simplified Declaration required to be submitted.

For further information and assistance, kindly contact Customs Airport Cargo Operations Section (ACOS) on 637 9700 or the Parcel Post Office on 216 3506, during working hours.

Mauritius Post Ltd – Customer Satisfaction Survey

Mauritius Post is currently undertaking a strategic review to improve its services and better meet customer expectations. Your feedback is very important and will directly contribute to shaping the future of postal and logistics services in Mauritius.

Mauritius Post Ltd informs its esteemed customers and the general public that, due to a substantial increase in the volume of air parcels and small packets, combined with limited cargo space on Air Mauritius flights to Rodrigues, the regular daily dispatch of these items has been temporarily suspended.  During this period, priority will be given to EMS services and letter mail, while the transportation of parcels and small packets will be subject to delays. Customers intending to send parcels using Colipost boxes (sizes S, M, L, and XL) are advised to use the sea freight service for shipments to Rodrigues.  We would like to reassure you that all parcels, up to a maximum weight of 10 kg, will continue to be accepted via Surface Mail. Mauritius Post Ltd has put measures in place to ensure that surface mail dispatches to Rodrigues occur at least twice a month to minimise disruptions.  We sincerely regret any inconvenience this temporary suspension may cause and appreciate your understanding and patience. Mauritius Post Ltd remains committed to providing timely updates on the situation as developments unfold.  Thank you for your continued cooperation.
