In an effort to revive the prevailing diplomatic relation established between Seychelles and Angola in the 1980s, the two countries have signed two bilateral agreements in June 2021, set to widen the scope of cooperation across common areas of interests.

While the General Cooperation Agreement was signed to instate a collaborative framework focused on certain areas and sectors, the Agreement on the Creation of a Bilateral Commission will ensure the setting up of an institution responsible to discuss and monitor the implementations of specific cooperation between the two countries. Through the establishment of these agreements, Seychelles and Angola will enjoy cooperation in sectors of tourism, agriculture and education amongst others.

With strategic partnership and reciprocal advantages in mind, Seychelles and Angola are also expected to secure airline connectivity through a bilateral air services agreement scheduled for signing in September 2021 i.e. 2 months earlier than planned. The agreement will essentially open the countries for commerce, exchanges and visitors and Seychelles specifically wishes to benefit from the expertise and human resources brought in by Angola through the arrangement to further develop its land transport, and ports and maritime safety sectors.
