Seychelles entry requirements
British citizens need a passport with a minimum of six months left on it to enter the Seychelles, as well as onward or return tickets. Proof of sufficient funds for your stay are also needed.
Locals in Seychelles do not approve of those landing at Seychelles airport without already having accommodation arranged, so this should be done beforehand.
Seychelles health
Travellers should ensure they are covered by comprehensive travel insurance.
Precautionary measures should be taken against mosquitoes in order to reduce the risk of contracting dengue fever and chikungunya.
Medical assistance can be a scarce commodity, especially in the more remote islands. The main hospital is in Victoria.
