Hi,
聽聽聽Just seen your post and I鈥檓 hoping you still use this!
I鈥檓 looking to move to Mauritius too from London... also similar situation I鈥檝e lived in London all my life but hold dual nationality (British/Mauritian).

I would like to bring my car over but unsure if I can as a returning resident?? Apparently if you can鈥檛 bring a car that鈥檚 more then 5 years old... UNLESS you are a returning resident.
However technically I鈥檓 not a returning resident because I鈥檝e lived in London my whole life...

Any advice on this would be really appreciated... looking to move in November lasted first week of December..

Thanks!
