United States Travel Advisory Excerpt for Mauritius ***for complete and up to date advisory see US Travel Advisory

January 16, 2009 COUNTRY DESCRIPTION:  The Republic of Mauritius is a small island nation of four inhabited and several other islands located in the southwestern Indian Ocean.  Mauritius has a stable government and a diverse economy.  Its per capita GDP of $7000 is the second highest in Africa.  Facilities for tourism are well-developed.  English is the official language of Mauritius; however Creole and French are also widely spoken.  English may not be understood outside of main towns and tourist areas.  The capital city is Port Louis.  Please read the Department of State Background Notes on Mauritius for additional information.
AVIATION SAFETY OVERSIGHT:  As there is no direct commercial air service to the United States by carriers registered in Mauritius, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has not assessed Mauritius’s Civil Aviation Authority for compliance with International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) aviation safety standards.  For more information, travelers may visit the FAA’s web site at http://www.faa.gov/safety/programs_initiatives/oversight/iasa.
INFORMATION FOR VICTIMS OF CRIME:  The loss or theft abroad of a U.S. passport should be reported immediately to the local police and the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate.  If you are the victim of a crime while overseas, in addition to reporting to local police, please contact the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate for assistance.  The Embassy/Consulate staff can, for example, assist you to find appropriate medical care, contact family members or friends and explain how funds could be transferred.  Although the investigation and prosecution of the crime is solely the responsibility of local authorities, consular officers can help you to understand the local criminal justice process and to find an attorney if needed. The local equivalent to the “911” emergency line in Mauritius is: 999 for police, 114 for emergency medical assistance, and 115 for the fire service. See our information on Victims of Crime.
SAFETY AND SECURITY:   Thefts in tourist areas are a concern, and visitors should keep track of their belongings at all times.  Women are advised against walking alone, particularly on public beaches and at night.  There have been reports of sexual assault and harassment of foreign travelers.  Americans should avoid crowds and street demonstrations, and maintain a low profile. For the latest security information, Americans traveling abroad should regularly monitor the Department of State, Bureau of Consular Affairs’ web site at http://travel.state.gov, where the current Travel Warnings and Travel Alerts, as well as the Worldwide Caution, can be found. Up-to-date information on safety and security can also be obtained by calling 1-888-407-4747 toll-free in the U.S. and Canada, or for callers outside the U.S. and Canada, a regular toll-line at 1-202-501-4444.  These numbers are available from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time, Monday through Friday (except U.S. federal holidays). The Department of State urges American citizens to take responsibility for their own personal security while traveling overseas.  For general information about appropriate measures travelers can take to protect themselves in an overseas environment, see the Department of State’s pamphlet A Safe Trip Abroad.
