What business can I do in Seychelles?

Seychelles offers Seychelles-based and non-Seychelles-based entrepreneurs numerous business opportunities that can be accessed, particularly in businesses benefiting from the country's offshore-focused and service-driven economy. Common business operations are:

• International Business Companies (IBCs): Holding IP, trading, investment, consulting, or management (may not do business in Seychelles).
• Tourism and Hospitality: Hotels, hotels with guesthouses, ecotourism resorts, and tour operations.
• Financial and Professional Services: Legal, accounting, or corporate services through local licensing.
• Seafood and Fish Export: Leveraging Seychelles' positioning and resources.
• E-commerce and Online Services: Either through IBCs or local entities with an international market focus.

Note: Non-residents typically establish IBCs for foreign operations due to incorporation convenience and tax neutrality. Nonetheless, any business aimed at the home market would require local licensing as well as adherence to local regulations.
