Getting a visa might sound a little formal, but think of it as the final step before your incredible adventure officially begins! The process is easy and straightforward, and it’s our pleasure to guide you through it. Getting your travel authorization in advance means a smooth and stress-free arrival, so you can start enjoying the beauty of Sri Lanka the moment you land.

The Easy Way to Get Your Visa: The ETA

For most nationalities, the simplest and most recommended way to get your visa is through the Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) system. The ETA is an official entry permit that’s linked to your passport electronically, saving you from any paperwork hassle at the airport.

You can apply for your ETA online, and most travelers receive approval within 24 hours. The ETA is valid for a short visit of up to 30 days and even includes a double-entry facility.

What You’ll Need to Apply

The online application is quick and easy. You’ll just need a few things on hand:

• A passport valid for at least six months from your date of arrival.

• Your travel details and accommodation information.

• A valid credit or debit card to pay the visa fee.

While there is an option for a visa on arrival, we highly recommend applying for your ETA online before you travel. This helps you avoid long queues and potential delays at the airport, so you can start your vacation right away!
