Can I visit Seychelles for business?
Business is listed among the visitor purposes, so a short meeting, commercial discussion or related visit may fit visitor entry when the traveller meets the conditions. Paid or unpaid work is different and requires the relevant work permission. Prepare invitations, company details and a clear itinerary when requested.
Use this page to organise the correct passport, purpose, documents and timing. Current visa rules, eligibility and entry conditions can change, so review the destination’s current visa platform before payment or travel.

What this page does not promise
A private information page can help organise a travel file, but it cannot guarantee approval, a fixed processing time, a particular fee or entry. Do not use a visitor route for employment, residence or another activity that the issued permission does not cover.
- Do not call employment a business visit.
- A visitor permit does not authorise paid or unpaid work.
