Eligibility of Seychellois nationals applying for an Electronic Travel Authorisation (eTA) |13 June 2023

Seychellois nationals can now apply for an Electronic Travel Authorisation (eTA) instead of a visa when travelling to Canada by air if they have held a Canadian temporary resident visa in the past 10 years, or hold a valid U.S. visitor visa at the time of application.

Expanded access to an eTA acts as a partial visa exemption for a country’s nationals.

Applying for an eTA is a simple online process and additional programme details can be found here: Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) - Canada.ca

Seychellois nationals applying for a visa to travel to Canada for the first time will have to make their application as per the normal procedures.
