General Notes

  • Dividends, interests and royalties derived from Seychelles by offshore entities are tax exempt. No capital gains.
  • Double taxation is eliminated by the credit method, i.e the taxpayer's country of residence will grant a credit for taxes paid in the source country.
  • When a resident of Seychelles is recipient of dividends from a company which is resident of the treaty country, the recipient is entitled to a tax credit which shall take into account the tax paid in the treaty country by the company paying the dividend in respect of the profits out of which the dividend is paid.
