All travellers: All visitors need to have a Health Travel Authorisation and a valid Travel and Health Insurance for entry to Seychelles. You are also required to stay in approved accommodation.
Travellers arriving by sea can apply for the Health Travel Authorisation via email. If you are arriving to Seychelles by sea, you must have spent at least 10 days by sea since your last port of call and should be without symptoms of COVId-19 during this period. Clients or crew who wish to disembark before completion of 10 days at sea or on-board must take a PCR test on arrival.
If you’re fully vaccinated: From 15 March 2022, travellers who are fully vaccinated do not need to take any COVID-19 travel tests before flying to Seychelles. You must have received the first two doses of the COVID-19 vaccine including a booster dose after six months since completing the primary series.

Proof of vaccination status: Travellers must present proof of their vaccination status when applying for the Health Travel Authorization for entry to Seychelles.

Seychelles will accept the proof of COVID-19 recovery and vaccination record and proof of COVID-19 vaccination issued in the Crown Dependencies.
