Do Italian citizens need a visa for the Seychelles?
Italian passport holders need an electronic travel authorisation (eTA) before travelling to the Seychelles for up to 30 days. It is a short online application, not a full visa.
Sources differ on this route: another dataset lists it as visa-free (90 days). Confirm on the official website before you travel.
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.
