Here are the conditions to be met and the steps to be taken to obtain a licence entry permit for Seychelles<\/strong>Whether you're a tourist or a professional. The Seychelles archipelago, located in the Indian Ocean, is made up of 115 paradise islands renowned for their exceptional flora and fauna.<\/p>\n

Formalities for entering Seychelles<\/h2>\n

First of all, it is important to know that entry requirements for Seychelles may vary depending on the health situation and the traveller's country of residence. However, several conditions must always be met before travelling to the archipelago:<\/p>\n

Valid passport<\/h3>\n

All visitors wishing to travel to Seychelles must be in possession of a passport valid for at least 1 month after the date of departure from Seychelles. The passport must also have at least two blank pages to enable the necessary stamps and visas to be affixed.<\/p>\n

Transport or onward ticket<\/h3>\n

It is compulsory to present a return or onward ticket to another destination to the airline or shipping company, as well as to the immigration authorities when you enter Seychelles. This is to prove that you will not be staying in Seychelles indefinitely.<\/p>\n

Accommodation booking<\/h3>\n

Travellers must also provide proof of accommodation booked for the duration of their stay in Seychelles. This may include hotels, furnished flats or private residences. The accommodation chosen must be approved by the local authorities.<\/p>\n

Financial statements<\/h3>\n

You must prove that you have sufficient resources to support yourself throughout your stay in Seychelles, in particular by presenting bank statements, proof of employment or official income tax returns.<\/p>\n

The different types of entry permit for Seychelles<\/h2>\n

There are several types of entry permit, depending on the reason for your trip and the length of your stay in Seychelles:<\/p>\n

ETA (Electronic Travel Authorisation) for a short stay for tourism, business or transit purposes<\/h3>\n

This type of permit is mainly issued to people travelling to Seychelles for holidays, business, transit or to visit friends. The ETA allows you to stay in the archipelago for a maximum of three months, renewable up to a total of six months under certain conditions. Consular fees start at \u20ac10, this travel authorisation must be obtained before departure<\/strong>. It is compulsory for majority of travellers<\/strong>who arrive by air<\/strong> in the Seychelles.<\/p>\n

Gainful occupation permit<\/h3>\n

This permit is intended for foreign professionals wishing to carry out paid work in Seychelles. It is issued by the Ministry of Employment and Social Affairs after examination of the applicant's file, which must include an employment contract or a letter of invitation from a Seychelles company. The duration of this authorisation depends on the employment contract and may be extended in the event of renewal.<\/p>\n

Student's permit<\/h3>\n

Foreign students wishing to undertake an internship or training course in Seychelles must apply for this specific authorisation from the Ministry of Education. They must also provide a certificate of enrolment in a Seychelles institution and proof of sufficient resources to cover their expenses during their stay.<\/p>\n

How do I obtain an entry permit for Seychelles?<\/h2>\n

The procedures for obtaining an entry permit vary according to the type of permit required:<\/p>\n

For ETA<\/h3>\n

Travellers must apply for authorisation at least 3 days before departure. This travel authorisation can be requested by the transport company at the time of boarding. It is therefore not possible to travel without this document.<\/strong>. However, if you have any specific travel advice, it is advisable to contact the Seychelles embassy or consulate in your home country before you leave.<\/p>\n

For other types of authorisation<\/h3>\n

Applications for work and study permits must be made to the relevant ministries before your departure, providing the required documents. It is advisable to find out about the procedures and deadlines relating to your situation, in particular by contacting the Seychelles embassy or consulate in your country of origin.<\/p>\n

Is it possible to travel to the Seychelles with children?<\/h2>\n

Yes, the families with children<\/strong> are welcome in the Seychelles. However, a few specific rules must be observed:<\/p>\n

Passport and visa for children<\/h3>\n

Minors travelling to Seychelles must also be in possession of an individual passport valid for the entire duration of their stay. They may also need their own entry permit, depending on the purpose and duration of their stay (tourism, study).<\/p>\n

Parental authorisations<\/h3>\n

Minors travelling alone or accompanied by only one parent may be required to present parental authorisation or an equivalent document establishing the relationship between them and the accompanying adult.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
