Seychelles Tourism standards set to improve with newly launched National Classification Programme
Mr Paul Lebon, Director General for Destination Planning and Development, Mrs Sinha Levkovic, Director for the Industry Planning and Development Unit, and members of her team were also in attendance.
The department is ready to engage its partners to adopt a uniform grading system in Seychelles as of September 2023, in line with the ‘Tourism Development Standard Regulations’ – a new law to be published in the Official Gazette on July 1st, 2023.
The national classification programme, which has been in the works since 2016, aims to increase industry standards and professionalism while improving the destination’s market value.
The programme features a well-established grading system that will inform guests about accommodation standards and what to expect from the product offering prior to making a purchase.
