Do Hong Konger citizens need a visa for the Seychelles?

Heads-up: some sources list this route as visa-free (90 days).
What this means for your trip
- Apply only on the official government site; third-party sites charge extra.
- Apply a few days before travel; most approvals are quick but some take longer.
- The authorisation is linked to your passport. A new passport needs a new application.
