HOT OFF THE PRESS:

Harcourts Offshore in Mauritius is launching an exciting new development. Properties range in price from R3.2 million to R7.5 million.

The Beau Plan development is located in a “smart city” in Mauritius which incorporates office, residential, commercial, educational and medical spaces as well as a leisure component.

Non-citizens are permitted to buy land in Mauritius for residential purposes through the smart city scheme. Investors who make a minimum property investment of US$375 000 (approximately R7.2 million) receive permanent residency in Mauritius.

There are many tax and other advantages to investing in property in Mauritius like good rental yields and capital appreciation.

If you are battling to picture the development, here is a short video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_IpS4poxgv4

News: SARS has a re-think and clarifies 'travel pass' statement

The South African Revenue Service (SARS) has cleared up confusion regarding the introduction of the much-debated ‘travel pass’ that caused widespread panic in the tourism industry, clarifying that the new system is being piloted to digitise the process of voluntarily declaring goods or cash upon entering or leaving South Africa.

The project, which will be piloted at King Shaka International Airport from November 1, is part of a South African Traveller Management System (SATMS) designed to modernise customs procedures.

“SARS will launch a pilot implementation of an electronic online portal for travellers to make declarations on a voluntary basis, well ahead of their arrival or departure to/from South Africa. The new system will allow travellers to pre-declare goods purchased, received, or otherwise acquired,” SARS said in a statement on Thursday, October 20.

“The new online traveller declaration system will, during the pilot phase, be fine-tuned based on insights gained as well as further engagement and feedback with various government departments and other stakeholders,” said SARS.

Pending a successful pilot, progressive implementation across all South African ports of entry will commence on April 1, 2023.

For travellers who choose not to use the online portal on their mobile devices, SARS will make a paper form available as well as self-service counters.

Travellers who have not submitted pre-declarations will still be allowed to enter or leave the Republic, but “are encouraged to voluntarily declare pre-departure or arrival to avoid the inconvenience of making a declaration at a port of entry”.

The tax authority caused consternation and widespread panic among travellers and the tourism industry with an initial statement (that has since been removed from the SARS website) on October 12, announcing a new online Traveller Declaration that “would require all travellers, including South African citizens and residents, children and infants, leaving or entering South Africa by air to complete and submit an online traveller declaration, as well as receive a traveller pass before they travel”.

Guests will stay on the aircraft during the short transit stop, departing an hour later on HM124 at 05h05 to arrive in Malé in the Maldives at 09h15.
