Seychelles visa requirements for German citizens
German citizens do not need a visa to visit the Seychelles for tourism or business, as it is a visa-free country. However, all travelers must apply for a Seychelles Travel Authorization (eTA) online before travel, up to 10 days in advance of their trip.
The Seychelles Travel Authorization: A mandatory electronic permit required for all foreign nationals entering Seychelles, regardless of nationality. It replaces the traditional paper immigration forms. The Travel Authorization is required for entry through all official ports, including air (e.g., Seychelles International Airport) and sea (cruise or private yacht) arrivals.

I did a mistake in the date of fly, but I came on without knowing it. After some steps, the process stoped because the number of flight was wrong of course. It was impossible to come back in order to correct it. I has been a difficult and long process to introduce the right date.
