The license of Miss Grand Mauritius was transferred to the Miss Supranational Mauritius organizer, [[Miss Earth Mauritius]] pageant, and Ahmad-Abbas Ltd. in 2015, 2016, and 2019, respectively.<ref name=mau19-22/><ref name=2015direc/><ref name=mau16/> Still, most of the country representatives were appointed; no Miss Grand National was held,<ref name=mau19/><ref name=mau19-22/><ref name=mau16/> the country representative was directly elected through the contest only in 2021 when the pageant named Ahmad-Abbas Pageant Show was organized to select the Mauritian candidate for Miss Grand International specifically.<ref name=2021show/>
Since the first competition in 2014, the highest and only placement of Mauritian representatives in the [[Miss Grand International]] contest was the final 10, obtained in 2022 by an appointed Yuvna Rinishta after she won the Miss Popular Vote and automatically qualified for the mentioned position.<ref name=res22/> On the occasion of celebrating the pageant's first decade anniversary, Yuvna was also assumed to be the 5th runner-up,<ref name=redai/><ref name=siamre/> but was forced to resign three days later due to her inability to sign a contract with the international body as well as the conflict between the Mauritian national director and the international organizer.<ref name=resign1/><ref name=resign2/><ref name=msnvi/> ==History== Mauritius debuted in Miss Grand International in 2014 and was represented by Dolesswaree Charun,<ref name=mau141/><ref name=mau14/> who was previously placed as one of the top 10 finalists at the Miss India Mauritius 2014 pageant and was subsequently assigned by the national organizer to represent the country at the [[Miss Grand International 2014]] pageant in Thailand.<ref name=mau14/><ref name=mau142/> A year later, the license was transferred to [[Ameeksha Dilchand]], the director of Miss Supranational Mauritius;<ref name=2015direc/><ref name=grandsup>{{cite web|url=https://www.lemauricien.com/actualites/magazine/miss-supranational-2015-miss-grand-international-2015-les-inscriptions-sont-ouvertes/27327/|title=Miss Supranational 2015/Miss Grand International 2015: Les inscriptions sont ouvertes|language=fr|date=7 July 2015|accessdate=8 October 2023|work=[[Le Mauricien]]|archivedate=7 October 2023|archiveurl=https://archive.today/20231007221206/https://www.lemauricien.com/actualites/magazine/miss-supranational-2015-miss-grand-international-2015-les-inscriptions-sont-ouvertes/27327/}}</ref> however, due to her inability to send a Mauritian candidate to compete internationally, the license was handed over to [[Miss Earth Mauritius]] organizer William Madarassou, the following year.<ref name=mau16/> No Mauritian candidates at Miss Grand International in 2017 and 2018 due to no licensees.

==Controversy== ===2022 Delegitimisation=== On October 28, 2022, three days after the [[Miss Grand International 2022]] coronation night, the pageant organizer released an official statement on their [[Facebook]] page dethroning Miss Grand Mauritius, Yuvna Rinishta, who had previously won the Miss Popular Vote then was automatically placed among the top 10 finalists (also assumed the 5th runners-up) and was also required to sign a contract to work with the organization until January 2023. According to the aforementioned announcement, Miss Mauritius decided to resign from the title due to her inability to sign the contract and complete the duty as the 5th runner-up, therefore she could no longer use the title with immediate effect.<ref name=resign1>{{cite web|url=https://www.komchadluek.net/entertainment/foreign-entertainment/534656|title="มิสแกรนด์ มอริเชียส" สละตำแหน่ง รองอันดับ 5 "Miss Grand International"|date=28 October 2022|access-date=28 October 2022|language=th|work=[[Kom Chad Luek]]|archive-date=28 October 2022|archive-url=https://archive.today/20221028150946/https://www.komchadluek.net/entertainment/foreign-entertainment/534656}}</ref><ref name=resign2>{{cite web|url=https://mgronline.com/entertainment/detail/9650000103311|title=มิสแกรนด์มอริเชียส คืนมงฯปฏิเสธตำแหน่งรองอันดับ 5 ไม่เซ็นสัญญามิสแกรนด์อินเตอร์ ??|date=28 October 2022|access-date=28 October 2022|language=th|work=[[Manager Daily]]|archive-date=28 October 2022|archive-url=https://archive.today/20221028151349/https://mgronline.com/entertainment/detail/9650000103311}}</ref><ref name=msnvi>{{cite web|language=vi|url=https://www.msn.com/vi-vn/entertainment/news/%C3%A1-h%E1%BA%ADu-miss-grand-international-b%E1%BB%8F-danh-hi%E1%BB%87u/ar-AA13tTjE?li=AAF7bLv|title=Á hậu Miss Grand International bỏ danh hiệu|author=Phương Mai|work=Msn.com|archive-date=28 October 2022|archive-url=https://archive.today/20221028154649/https://www.msn.com/vi-vn/entertainment/news/%C3%A1-h%E1%BA%ADu-miss-grand-international-b%E1%BB%8F-danh-hi%E1%BB%87u/ar-AA13tTjE?li=AAF7bLv}}</ref><ref name=resignvi2>{{cite web|url=https://gocpho24h.com/giai-tri/a-hau-5-miss-grand-international-2022-tu-bo-danh-hieu/|title=Á hậu 5 Miss Grand International 2022 bị ép từ bỏ danh hiệu|date=28 October 2022|access-date=28 October 2022|language=vi|work=Gocpho24h.com|archive-date=28 October 2022|archive-url=https://archive.today/20221028155053/https://gocpho24h.com/giai-tri/a-hau-5-miss-grand-international-2022-tu-bo-danh-hieu/}}</ref>
