The Prime Minister of Mauritius, Honourable Pravind Kumar Jugnauth, has just announced to the nation that Mauritius will be in total lockdown as from 6 am local time tomorrow Wednesday 10 March 2021 till 25 March 2021. This decision has been taken at a cabinet meeting on Tuesday 09 March 2021 to prevent the spread of Covid-19 in Mauritius after it was confirmed that Mauritius has recorded 13 local cases in the last week.

As a result, the Axis office will be closed as from 6 am tomorrow Wednesday 10 March 2021 and our employees will work from home. Please rest assured that you can expect the same level of service that you are used to, and we do not expect any disruption in our services as was the case when Mauritius was in lockdown last year.

If you have any queries relating to your business and for any transactions, please feel free to contact your usual relationship person by email and they shall revert to you with the usual promptitude. We will keep you updated on the situation in Mauritius through regular Communiqués.

Please also note that Thursday 11 March 2021 and Friday 12 March 2021 are Public holidays in Mauritius and our operations will, as usual, be suspended on those days.

We count on your understanding and continuous support throughout this challenging situation. We wish you, your families, and your staff continued health and safety.
