Sending Gifts to Mauritius from Réunion: Common Questions
Because we're based in Mauritius, there's no shipping between the islands involved. Order before our cut-off - 11:30am Mauritius time, which is 11:30am in Réunion - and many gifts arrive the same day. Otherwise it's usually next-day or your chosen date.
No - and that's exactly why this works. Even between neighbouring islands, a posted parcel almost always gets taxed: Mauritius charges import duty on parcels from abroad, and the gift's value plus shipping is almost always enough to trigger it. Because we prepare and deliver everything locally in Mauritius, there's no parcel, no customs and no surprise fees for your recipient - ever.
You order and pay online with your French card. Prices are shown in Mauritian rupees (Rs) and your bank handles the conversion - most gift hampers work out at roughly €30-60. No account or app needed.
There's no time difference - Réunion and Mauritius are both GMT+4. Our same-day cut-off is 11:30am, the same time for you. For birthdays and festivals, order a day or two ahead.
Yes - we hand-deliver anywhere in Mauritius. Every town and village, from Port Louis and Curepipe to Grand Baie, Flic-en-Flac, Mahébourg and beyond. Just add the recipient's mobile number and our team confirms access if it's ever needed.
Almost always, yes. Even between neighbouring islands, a posted parcel risks import duty and delays. With DodoMarket there's no shipping and no customs, so your full budget goes into the gift and it arrives the same day or next.
What Réunionnais Send For
Festivals & Holidays
Our islands share the same celebrations:
Dipavali, Eid, Christmas, Chinese New Year, Holi. Send sweets, hampers and flowers to mark the day across the water.
Family Milestones
Be there for the big moments from afar:
Birthdays, anniversaries, a new baby, exam results, Mother's & Father's Day. A surprise gift says "I'm thinking of you" better than a call.
Just Because
No occasion needed:
Thinking of you, get well, sympathy, or simply missing them. Sometimes the best gifts are the unexpected ones.
