Ukraine passport → Seychelles
Visa requirement for citizens of Ukraine travelling to Seychelles for tourism or short visits.
⚡Electronic travel authorisation (ETA)Dataset — not yet individually verified
Data from the passport-index dataset, February 2026 snapshot — with a correction applied by visafreely (see the changelog). This pair has not yet been individually verified against an official source; see how verification works.
Note: Seychelles is visa-free, but every non-citizen visitor must obtain a paid Travel Authorisation through the official SEBS portal before travel (airlines check it at boarding); a Visitor’s Permit is issued on arrival. The dataset’s bare “visa free” hides this mandatory pre-authorisation.

What to do next
- Apply a few days before departure. The authorisation for Seychelles is applied for online through the official government channel. It is not a visa, but it is mandatory.
- Wait for approval before check-in. Airlines will not board you without an approved authorisation, so do not leave it to the airport.
- Travel on the same passport. The authorisation is linked to your passport — if you renew it, you need a new authorisation.
Before you go

What this means
Seychelles requires holders of a Ukraine passport to obtain an electronic travel authorisation before travelling. This is not a visa, but airlines will not board you without it. Apply through the official government channel a few days before departure.
Whatever the requirement, your passport generally needs at least six months of validity beyond your travel dates, and border officers can ask for proof of onward travel and sufficient funds. Rules on this page cover ordinary passports and short tourist visits — work, study and long stays follow different rules.
