seychelles mmmmmmmmmmmmm.
its a lovely place i can tell u
once nigerians know that its a very beautiful france on an african soil it wont be visa free any longer
its a tourist destination mostly for europeans.
there are rated the second richest country in africa.their economy is very good.there is good health care system and jobs.yes nairalanders jobs.but they are only about 80,000 people living there.its cool
many people do not even know about it like the europeans do.see europe is not only the behive.

Visitors to Seychelles must have passports valid for at least 6 months beyond end of stay. Visas are not required for most visitors. It is however advisable to check with Seychelles embassies and inbound airlines at least one month before travel. But you need an onward air ticket/passage, pre-booked accommodation and sufficient funds to cater for your stay.
Contact vikiviko2002@yahoo.com, for further info

Hi , Seychelles is a very lovely island , i moved in to seychelles to work for a resort 3 months aso , and it has been real great to work here , a very lovely island .
u can count seychelles as a african country , ( they are on the indian ocean ) and it looks similar to europe .it is visa free to Nigerians , but they have strict rules on Nigerians
most of them speaks french more than english .
there are some few nigerians here that plays basketball and some work for hotels.

if u want to know more , send me emails will tell u lot more

darkroll, u are the first nigerian i have seen living in the seychelles.pls i need information on how to get to the seychelles
Re: Seychelles by darkroll(m): 6:05am On Oct 10, 2007
Hi All , (Renaud Uhmmm u have been reading too much of love novels i guess , )

To be frank with you all , Seychelles is an island for the rich , if you dnt have a job here doing , it will be of waste for you to come . i will advise you all to apply for GOP (Gainfull occupational permit ) with the seychelles immigration . you wil send your documents to them and your processing fee .

With this GOP , you can easily apply for a job when you get here . if you come as a Tourist , it will be very hard for you to get a JOb ,and cost of living will be very high for you . if you have a job your employee provides for all your needs , so you can be able to save a lot .


For those coming for vacations , the cheapest resort/hotel you can get to stay is around 300USD per night (including breakfast only ).

For flights :
Kenya Airways , Qatar Airways , Emirates Airline

Flight on kenya airways is around 1300dolls , you can check with the other airlines for thier rates .


There are only 5 Nigerians staying in Seychelles , and they all work here .

So you all ,if you follow my guidelines , you will have a wonderfull stay in Seychelles

If U require to know more , please send me an email . willa.seun@yahoo.com

(For all those that asked me to send them emails , am sorry i find it hard to send emails at times , due to tight schedule here . but please email me and i will reply .)

seychelles is a lovely island with alot of job offer.well i dont think anyone need a visa before u could get to seychelles.all u have to do is book for a flight and at the port of entry the immigration will ask for ur hotel reservation confirmation,return ticket and once u have a valid international passport.they will stamp ur passport and then u can roll in and out.but if u wanna extend ur stay for up to year , they will ask u to pay 14$. thats all you need fellaz.

good luck

Re: Seychelles by stephenik(m): 3:14pm On Oct 14, 2007

Re: Seychelles by darkroll(m): 3:43am On Oct 15, 2007

GOP means Gainfull Occupational Permit

BTA means Basic Travel Allowance

To obtain GOP for Nigeria , You have to make all the available requirement lised onmy above post and then you send it to them , or you send to someone here to hand drop for you .
They will acesss and confirm all documents , then they will call you for interview and then issue you GOP .
