The Seychelles currency is the Rupee (SCR), divided into 100 cents.
The country's foreign exchange regulations require visitors to pay for all services provided by hotels, guesthouses and self-catering enterprises, as well as things like car hire, entrance fees to parks and reserves, scuba diving and boat charter, in major foreign currency notes, preferably US dollars or Euros or by credit card.

Taxis and restaurant bills not connected to hotels are payable in foreign or Seychelles Rupees. Rupees can only be used in local shops, markets, and bars.

While all hard currencies are supposedly acceptable, US dollars or Euros are best. Credit cards are widely welcomed throughout the Seychelles. Money can be exchanged at banks and the airport on Mahé, or at hotels, and banks process travellers’ cheques. To change Rupees back into foreign currency on departure requires the official receipt from the initial transaction.

ATMs are available at major banks on Mahé, Praslin and La Digue Seychelles rupee (SCR)
