Check Requirements for Sri Lanka Visa

About Sri Lanka eVisa

The Sri Lanka eVisa program is an electronic visa document established by the government in 2012. This type of visa allows some citizens to apply for a visa to enter Sri Lanka freely without visiting the Embassy. Introduced to simplify the online visa application process, the eVisa enables foreign nationals to obtain authorization to visit Sri Lanka for certain purposes.
