If you are considering a villa on Mahé, we can discuss the Seychelles Residence Permit options that may be relevant to your circumstances before you proceed with a purchase. Empathia Village helps purchasers prepare documents and coordinates with appropriate local specialists. The project team reports that some of its clients have received permits.
How is eligibility assessed?
The official Seychelles Immigration and Civil Status guidance sets out the possible eligibility grounds and application conditions. Purchasing property is not itself a Residence Permit or an automatic basis for approval. The competent authority evaluates each application and makes the final decision.
Support before a transaction
We personally discuss the buyer's objectives and available process before the relevant contractual stages. You may also appoint your own Seychelles immigration lawyer to check eligibility, documents, costs and any family applications independently.
Property ownership is a separate procedure
A non-Seychellois acquisition of private immovable property requires the applicable Government Sanction process. Our team supports that procedure for the selected buyer and plot before the transaction proceeds to the relevant subsequent contractual stages. See our Buyer Guide and Official Project Facts.
Contact the project team for a private discussion and available project documentation. Independent legal advice is welcome.
