Electronic Return of Employees (ROE)

As per MRA Notice dated 01 August 2017: The Income Tax Regulations as amended in January 2017 now require employers to include ALL their employees in the ROE.

There are two ways of filing the Return on Employees online, either through the Mauritius Network Services Ltd (MNS) website or the Mauritius Revenue Authority (MRA) website.

Return of Employees (Mauritius Network Services) - Contributions Network Project

Employers using the CNP system must file the Return of Employees by uploading a CSV file generated from Sicorax Payroll. A format of the CSV file has been released by the MNS effective as from 13 July 2017.

To proceed use the following steps:

  • Step 1: Click Fiscal Procedure menu
  • Step 2: Click Fiscal Procedure icon
  • Step 2: Click MNS/MRA Exports option (Step 4)

To export the CSV file (refer to below screen)

  • Step 1: Double Click Yearly MNS MRA Return of Employees (Jul-2017)
  • Step 2: Insert the different criteria as explained below:
  • Fiscal Year: Choose from the list for year 2019 (Jul-2018/Jun-2019);
