Holiday path: obtain an Electronic Travel Authorisation before departure on the official SEBS portal https://seychelles.govtas.com (or the e-Border app), then receive a Visitor’s Permit on arrival if you meet Immigration’s entry conditions.
Pricing: Tourism Seychelles publishes a standard Travel Authorisation fee of EUR 10 on the official portal — avoid third-party sites that charge more. The first Visitor’s Permit (up to three months) is free; extensions are SCR 5,000 per further period of up to three months.
