Seychelles Travel Authorisation for Namibia Citizens
Do Namibian Passport Holders Need Entry Permits?
Yes, every traveller from Namibia must have an approved digital document to board a flight to Seychelles.
This rule applies to adults, children, and infants regardless of the length of their holiday or business trip.

Before starting your request, ensure you have these items ready for upload:
- Valid Namibian passport with 6 months validity.
- Digital passport-style photograph with a clear background.
- Proof of accommodation and return flight confirmation.
You can view a full list of necessary paperwork to ensure your files meet the size requirements.
Available Entry Categories
Standard Tourism
Perfect for Namibians visiting for leisure, beach holidays, or seeing friends.
Business Meetings
Designed for attending conferences, site visits, or professional negotiations.
Understanding Your Stay Limits
The permission granted is typically for a short-term stay based on your flight itinerary.
Entry is usually granted for a single trip, meaning you must re-apply if you leave and return.

Payment of Fees
Costs are determined by the processing speed you select and the current service rates for Namibian nationals.
Fees are non-refundable once the assessment process has begun by the review team.
Processing Options
There are three main speeds available for Namibian applicants:
Best for those booking weeks in advance.
A faster turnaround for mid-week departures.
Priority handling for last-minute travel emergencies.
The Digital Form Process
The form is entirely online. You will need to enter your personal data exactly as it appears in your passport.
Double-check your email address, as the final approved document is sent there directly.
Monitoring Your Application Status
After submission, you can check the progress at any time.
You will need your unique reference number and your Namibian passport number to log in.
Why Rejections Happen
Most denials are caused by simple typos or blurry document scans.
Ensure your passport photo is high resolution and not a photo of a photo.
Expired Documents and Renewals
If your stay is ending soon, you must contact local immigration offices before the date passes.
Overstaying can result in heavy fines or being banned from future visits to the islands.
Success Strategies for Applicants
- Apply at least 5 days before your flight to avoid stress.
- Keep a digital copy of your approval on your mobile phone.
- Check that your flight numbers are current and correct.
- Verify that your bank card is enabled for international online payments.
