FAQs about our Seychelles Visa Medical

Which types of visas require this medical for Seychelles?

A medical fitness certificate is mandatory for all Gainful Occupation Permits (GOP) for any employment lasting more than one month. It is also a requirement for Residence Permits, where a doctor must certify that the applicant and any minor children are in good health and free from contagious diseases.

When should I book my medical for Seychelles?

We recommend booking your medical 4–6 weeks before you intend to submit your GOP application. Because Seychelles requires a stool culture (Salmonella Typhi) alongside blood tests and a Chest X-ray, you must allow sufficient time for the laboratory to process these varied samples.

How long does the appointment take and when do I get results for Seychelles?

The clinic consultation takes approximately 30–40 minutes. Due to the specific requirement for a stool culture and infectious disease blood panels, your final certified Seychelles medical report is typically ready within 3–5 working days.

Why does the Seychelles require a stool test?

Seychelles authorities require a stool culture specifically to screen for Salmonella Typhi. This is a mandatory part of the “Fit to Work” clearance for the islands.

What blood tests are required for the Seychelles?

You will need a Full Blood Count, and screenings for HIV, Hepatitis B, and Syphilis. We handle the laboratory work and provide the certified results.

Is a Chest X-ray mandatory for the Seychelles?

Yes, a Chest X-ray report is required to prove you are free from active Tuberculosis. We coordinate this with our radiology partners to get your results fast.

Are vaccinations required for the Seychelles?

The medical focuses on screening, but we can review your vaccination history and provide any required boosters (like Hepatitis A or Typhoid) during your visit.
