What do I need to enter Seychelles?
A traveller should prepare a valid passport or recognised travel document, completed travel authorisation, return or onward travel, confirmed accommodation and evidence of sufficient funds. The planned address should be accurate, and the purpose should fit a visitor journey such as holiday, business or visiting family.
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.

- Do not submit false accommodation or address information.
- Visitor entry does not authorise paid or unpaid work.
