What foundation administration includes

Secretarial services

Every Mauritius foundation must have a qualified secretary. We provide the secretary function, maintaining the foundation's statutory records, preparing and filing required documents with the Registrar and ensuring the foundation's compliance calendar is met at all times.

Council meetings and minutes

We prepare agendas for council meetings, attend or facilitate meetings, draft formal minutes recording decisions made and resolutions passed. All decisions are documented and retained on the foundation file.

Annual accounts

We prepare or co-ordinate the preparation of the foundation's annual accounts, reconciling the foundation's assets, income and distributions. These are presented to the council and retained on the foundation file in accordance with the Act.

Regulatory filings

Annual returns and any other required filings are prepared and submitted to the Registrar of Foundations and, where applicable, the FSC. Renewal of any licences or authorisations is managed proactively.

KYC maintenance

We maintain up-to-date KYC records for the founder, council members and beneficiaries, conducting periodic reviews and requesting updated documentation as required by AML/CFT regulations.

Distribution processing

Distributions to beneficiaries are processed in accordance with the foundation charter and council resolutions. We prepare distribution letters, maintain distribution records and ensure that each distribution is properly authorised and documented.

CRS and FATCA compliance

Where the foundation is a Reporting Financial Institution for CRS or FATCA purposes, we prepare and file the required annual reports with the Mauritius Revenue Authority in accordance with applicable regulations.

Frequently asked questions

What are the annual obligations of a Mauritius foundation?
Under the Foundations Act 2012, a foundation must maintain accurate records, prepare annual accounts, hold council meetings as required by the charter and file an annual return with the Registrar. Foundations that are Reporting Financial Institutions must also file CRS and FATCA reports annually.
Does a foundation need to be audited?
The Foundations Act 2012 does not impose a mandatory audit requirement on all foundations. However, the charter may require an audit, or an audit may be required if the foundation holds an FSC licence. We can advise on the specific requirements applicable to your foundation.
Can the council make decisions by written resolution?
In most cases, yes — provided the charter permits written resolutions. This allows the council to make decisions without convening a physical meeting, which is particularly convenient for foundations with internationally dispersed council members.
What happens if the foundation does not meet its annual obligations?
Failure to file annual returns or maintain required records can result in penalties, loss of good standing and, in serious cases, the foundation being struck off by the Registrar. We manage the compliance calendar proactively to ensure all deadlines are met.
Can the foundation charter be amended after establishment?
Yes, subject to the provisions of the charter itself and the Foundations Act 2012. Amendments typically require a council resolution and may require the founder's consent where reserved powers are involved. Material amendments may need to be notified to the Registrar.
