Main Political Parties
Seychelles has a multi-party political system, but the political landscape is dominated by two main political parties:

- Seychellois Democratic Alliance (LDS): centre, liberal political coalition. It is currently the leading coalition, holding 25 out of 35 seats
- United Seychelles (US): left-wing, democratic socialism. It currently has 10 seats in the National Assembly.

Other smaller parties in Seychelles include One Seychelles, Seychellois Alliance, Seychelles Patriotic Movement, Popular Democratic Movement, and New Democratic Party.

Executive Power
The President is elected by universal suffrage for a term of five years and is eligible for re-election for one more term. The President is the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces and has the power to appoint judges and other senior government officials. He is also the head of government.
The Cabinet of Ministers is appointed by the President and is responsible for advising the President on policy and the day-to-day administration of the government. The Cabinet is collectively responsible to the National Assembly and can be removed by a vote of no-confidence.
Legislative Power
In Seychelles, legislative power is vested in the National Assembly, which is the unicameral. The National Assembly consists of 35 members, 25 of whom are directly elected from constituencies across Seychelles, and nine are appointed by the President. Members of the National Assembly serve a five-year term. The National Assembly is responsible for making laws, overseeing government activities, and approving the national budget.
