Last update: 6 hours agoInvestment Appeal: Seychelles ranked 12th globally in the 2026 Nomad Lifestyle Index, leading Africa with a score of 64.46. The ranking weighs taxes, safety, climate, residency options and infrastructure—factors that can shape decisions by entrepreneurs and investors. Travel & Health: Visitors with recent travel to the Democratic Republic of Congo must spend at least 21 days outside the country before travelling to Seychelles, as authorities respond to the Ebola outbreak. No cases had been reported locally as of October 19. Digital Finance: Seychelles-headquartered Bitget says it will end services for some users in a one-off move, with affected customers to receive withdrawal instructions. The exchange says funds remain safe; the announcement follows a major security breach and comes amid tighter global regulatory demands. Tourism: Seychelles is mourning Mickey Mason, co-founder of Mason’s Travel, whose work helped build the country’s tourism industry and linked hospitality with conservation. Internet Business: A Seychelles company controlled by businessman Lu Heng submitted 10 of Africa’s 16 applications in ICANN’s new domain-name round. The report also links Heng to Cloud Innovation, which has called for AFRINIC, Africa’s internet-address registry, to be wound up.
