Seychelles Civil Aviation Authority (SCAA) is a statutory body of the Government of Seychelles to regulate civil aviation in Seychelles. It is responsible for overseeing civil aviation operations, ensuring safety, and managing airports throughout the country. [1] The Authority was established in 2006 under the Seychelles Civil Aviation Authority Act, 2005. [2]

History

Before the establishment of the SCAA, civil aviation matters in Seychelles were handled by the Department of Civil Aviation within the Ministry of Transport. In 2006, the Seychelles Civil Aviation Authority Act created SCAA as an autonomous statutory body to regulate, manage, and develop civil aviation activities. [3]

Operations

The Authority is governed by a Board of Directors appointed by the government. The day-to-day operations are managed by a Chief Executive Officer, supported by various technical and administrative divisions such as Air Navigation Services, Aviation Security, Safety Regulation, and Airport Operations.
