$35.00. That is $14.00 in government fees and $21.00 for our service.

From 4 hours. Governments do not guarantee processing times, so apply as early as you can.

Up to 90 days.

You must enter Seychelles within 30 days of approval. That window is separate from how long you may stay.

Single entry — once you leave Seychelles it is used up, even if time is left on it.

Approval takes from 4 hours, and you then have 30 days to enter Seychelles. You can apply shortly before you fly — just not so early that the entry window runs out.

Ask our assistant. It answers in the chat, and we hand it the route you are looking at — Ivorian passport, travelling to Seychelles — so you do not have to repeat it.

What Seychelles may ask for

Not every traveller is asked for all of these. A valid passport is checked every time; the rest is a spot check at the border, and some items belong to a visa application rather than the crossing itself.

  • Passport valid for duration of stay with blank pages
  • Confirmed hotel booking or accommodation proof
  • Return or onward flight ticket required
  • Proof of sufficient funds ($150/day minimum)
  • Completed Travel Authorization form online
  • Travel insurance strongly recommended
