What are the acceptable currencies and methods of payment in Seychelles?
The GB Pound Sterling (£), the US Dollar (US$) and the Euro (€) are all accepted, as well as some other major international currencies. Visitors are required to use foreign currency when making payments in hotels, guesthouses and for other hospitality-related expanses. Other incidental purchases including local shops and taxis are payable in the local currency. Credit cards are also widely accepted throughout Seychelles. These may be more ideal when travelling to the smaller more remote islands. For more information on money matters, please refer to the Money and Banking section of the site.
