Hi There,

I would like to relocate to Seychelles. I am American. Does anyone have any tips, leads, etc to understand this process? I am in the very beginning and finding it rather hard to find anything for non-citizens. In the usa, non-citizens are allowed to become taxi drivers etc. I dont even think that job is legal for non-citizens in Seychelles, so what can non-citizens do.

If jobs are hard to find then I would be happy to come in as a business owner. What categories are allowed to have some level of residency in Seychelles? What industries? What labor? And, how as a business owner do you show the govt your credentials to do so?

Thanks for all of your engagement and answers in advance.

Thank you very much. I have gone once and fell in love with the country and wish to live there. Have you had any members who successfully relocated to Seychelles?
