Seychelles Travel Entry Guidance for Georgia Citizens
Do Georgia Nationals Need a Permit?
Yes, every traveller from Georgia must have a valid Seychelles Travel Authorisation. This is a mandatory requirement regardless of the age of the visitor or the length of the intended stay.
Available Entry Categories
The system caters to different travel needs. Most visitors select the International Travel category for tourism or leisure purposes. There are also specific paths for transit and business visits.
Each category ensures that the visitor meets the health and security standards of the islands. You can review more details regarding the stay permissions for each category online.
Documentation Summary
To complete the digital form, Georgia citizens should prepare several items. Detailed specifics are available on our required documents page for further reading.
- Valid Georgian passport with six months remaining.
- Digital photograph of the traveller.
- Proof of accommodation and return flight tickets.
- Contact details and emergency information.
Stay Duration and Validity
The permit is typically valid for a single entry. The length of stay is determined by the immigration officers upon arrival, usually aligned with your return flight date. It is essential to ensure your passport is stamped correctly when you land.
Financial Considerations
The total cost for the entry permit is not fixed. It varies based on the type of travel, the urgency of the request, and the specific nationality of the applicant. Detailed information is found on the pricing overview section.
Review Phases and Timelines
Applications undergo a structured review process. Travellers can choose from three processing speeds: Normal, Urgent, or Super Fast. This allows flexibility for those who have last-minute travel arrangements.

Completing the Form
The application is entirely digital. You will need to provide personal data, flight numbers, and health declarations. Ensure all information is typed exactly as it appears on your Georgian passport to prevent border issues.
Monitoring Your Request
After submission, you can check the status of your file at any time. You will need your unique reference number and your passport number to access the tracking system.
Reasons for Entry Denials
Common issues that lead to a rejected application include blurry document scans or mismatched flight dates. Always double-check that your passport number is entered correctly without typos.
Expired Permits and Extensions
If your stay exceeds the initial period granted, you must contact the local immigration office in Victoria. Overstaying without an extension can lead to fines or difficulties during future visits to the islands.
