What if the Seychelles travel authorization payment fails online, and do you need to show proof of funds in advance?
Based on 1 discussion with 3 participants · Last activity: 8 days ago
TL;DR
If the Seychelles travel authorization payment does not go through online, travelers report that approval can still be issued with cash payment on arrival. In the application, flight and hotel bookings are usually enough, while the guideline is USD 150 per person per day; any funds check is more likely at the airport and is reportedly rare.
What the community said
When applying for Seychelles travel authorization, travelers say you usually do not need to confirm a specific amount of money in the online form. Flight and accommodation bookings are typically enough, while the guideline is about USD 150 per person per day and, if checked, this is more likely to happen at the airport on arrival rather than during the online application.

If the Seychelles entry authorization website does not accept the payment, travelers report cases where the authorization was still approved and the fee was paid in cash on arrival. This can be a fallback option if the online card payment keeps failing.

Payment issues can affect one traveler while another application in the same family goes through without trouble. Recent reports suggest this may be a technical payment problem rather than an issue with the travel documents themselves.
