Why join

Benefits of membership

Some of the reasons for signing up to Seychelles' principal private sector professional association for tourism.

We fight for your interests

A proven track record of tackling administrators — regardless of political colour — lobbying government up to key Ministers and the President.

We influence policy

Successful lobbying in members' interests — most recently an initial revision to the 2% turnover tax, which we continue to fight to abolish.

We support members

The Secretariat and the expertise of the Board listen and advise when you have a problem — helping members grow their businesses.

Training workshops

Usually free of charge to members, covering a broad range of topics — from pandemic-era hospitality training to sustainability and profitability.

We visit you and listen

A rolling schedule of property visits provides focussed help and builds an overall picture of the state of the industry.

We keep you informed

SHTA Updates land in your inbox regularly — often the first communiqués on breaking news within the tourism sector.

Value for money

Membership rates are determined by the size of your business and kept extremely low — cut to the bone during the pandemic.

We entertain you

Cocktails, informal get-togethers and gala dinners — enhancing your professional network in an industry where contacts matter.

“We are stronger together — the larger our membership, the more government and other key players take notice of what we do and say. Don't work in isolation: join the SHTA family in the interests of your business and the tourism sector in Seychelles.”

Get in touch

OK — I'm convinced. How do I join?

Contact Neesha Palit, SHTA Administrator — call her, email us, or send a message below.

Send us a message

We aim to respond to all enquiries promptly.

We receive this directly, and your email application also opens with the message addressed to shtaseychelles@gmail.com so you keep a copy of what you sent.

Two numbers are listed above because the Association uses both — a landline and a mobile/WhatsApp line — and has not yet confirmed which should be the public one.
