In three easy steps, the panel below will allow you to check the current conversion rates from Mauritius Rupees (MRU) to commonly used currencies. This live facility will provide you with an idea of how many Rupees your local currency will buy you today.  The Rupee is made up of 100 cents.

Whilst foreign currency can often be used in recommended duty free stores throughout the island, we would suggest that you consider Travellers Cheques for your own peace of mind.

If and when considering Tips and/or Gratuities in Mauritius, 10% is widely regarded as the norm.

Only foreign currency may be used at the outward bound Duty Free Shop at SSR International Airport, so do not save your Mauritius Rupees for purchasing Duty Free goods on the way home.
