As of October 15, a new regulation will come into effect: all travelers heading to Sri Lanka for tourism or business purposes must obtain a valid Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) before departure. The option to obtain this document upon arrival will no longer be available.

The Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) remains valid for short stays (tourism or business). However, it must now be presented at the time of boarding. Airlines are required to verify that each passenger has properly applied for their ETA before check-in.

If you are planning a trip to Sri Lanka, you will need an ETA visa. VisaCenter will handle your Sri Lanka visa application and help you avoid unnecessary difficulties.
