2 SEYCHELLES Property Tenure/Ownership Two types of tenure exist for ownership of immovable property in Seychelles: freehold title; and leasehold title. Under the Immovable Property (Transfer Restriction) Act, a non- Seychellois may not, without first obtaining the sanction from the relevant minister: purchase any immovable property or right to the property; lease any property or rights in the property; or enter into any agreement that includes an option to purchase or lease any such property or right. A non-seychellois is a person who is: not a Seychellois national or is a company; an overseas company; or a corporate body by whatever name called that is under non- Seychellois control. A company is deemed to be under non-seychellois control if: it is an overseas company; any of its directors are non-seychellois; more than one-third of the votes exercisable at meeting are vested in non-seychellois; more than one-third of the nominal amount of its issued shares are held by non-seychellois; the amount paid as dividends to non-seychellois members in a 12-month period exceeds one-third of the total amount paid as dividends by the company in the same period; more than one-third of the nominal value of debentures or charges of the company are held by non-seychellois; or annual interest on debentures or charges held by non-seychellois exceeds one third of the annual interest on all debentures or charges of the company that are outstanding. Foreign individuals and companies with any foreign participation are required to submit an application to the Ministry of Land Use for sanction to: purchase or hold an option to purchase an immovable property; or acquire or hold an option to acquire shares in a company that owns an immovable property. In considering an application, the Minister will have regard to: the character of the applicant (or directors, if a company); whether the declared purpose is consistent with the government s policy on land use and development in Seychelles; and whether the acquisition is in the interest of the country. The Minister may impose any conditions or restrictions on the grant of sanction. Any sanction granted is valid for one year from the date it is granted. If the property is later resold to a non-seychellois purchaser, a new sanction application is required.
