How many visa-free countries with a Mauritian passport?

Why do websites give different numbers for the Mauritian passport?

Why you read different numbers elsewhere

For the same Mauritian passport, websites give totals that don't match. They are not necessarily wrong: they count different things, without saying so. Here are the three definitions, applied to the same data.

Strictly visa-free: 95; You show your passport, nothing else.
No prior application: 128; + electronic authorisation and visa on arrival. The Henley Passport Index count, and ours.
Counting e-visas: 158; + e-visa. More flattering, but still an application.

What this page does not replace

Entry rules change often, sometimes overnight. This record gives the known state, with its source; it does not replace checking with the destination’s embassy or consulate, the only authority on the day you leave.
