The List of Constitutional offices of Mauritius^[1] are the offices that are regulated by the constitution of the republic as being legal public offices that have been occupied since 1968. These are known as the key positions in the political jargon. As Mauritius follows the British constitutional system, some offices are not regulated by its constitution but by precedent and conventions. Examples include the position of Vice Prime Minister^[2] which was maintained from 1983 to 1990 and from 2005 up to now. Governments from 1990 to 2005 did not nominate any Vice Prime Ministers as they were not constitutionally required to do so.

Historically, other positions apart from political offices are also considered as constitutional offices. Examples are the Commissioner of Police, the Chief Justice, the Ombudsperson among others.^[3] Below this article follows a list of constitutional offices and non-constitutional offices having been provided with much administrative and governmental power. All the offices listed are positions currently constituted and that have been created through the 1968 constitutional with some others created under the constitutional amendment of 1992 following the proclamation of the Republic.
