Sri Lanka

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How can I know if I need a visa to travel to Sri Lanka?

You can use iVisa's Visa checker here to find out if you need a visa to travel to Sri Lanka. Once you enter this page, you have to pick your nationality in the upper menu. After that, you only have to choose Sri Lanka as your destination country. As soon as you choose this information in the drop-down menu, you should be able to see if you can apply for a Sri Lanka visa or not.

What is a Sri Lanka ETA?

The Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) is an official document that allows you to travel to Sri Lanka. This document is based on an electronic system linked to your passport.

How many types of Sri Lankan ETAs are there?

If you're planning to travel to Sri Lanka, you can get a Tourist Sri Lanka ETA or a Business Sri Lanka ETA.

How long is my Sri Lanka Tourist ETA valid for?

This will depend on your nationality, but most of the time you can stay in Sri Lanka for 30 days in Total. Please note that this amount of days is valid for each entry.

What are the requirements for the ETA?

Before applying online you should keep in mind what documents you need, but don't worry, the list is not long:

  • You must have a passport with 6 months of validation.

  • A Digital passport photo.

  • Credit/debit card or PayPal account. Keep in mind that iVisa accepts multiple payment methods such as credit and debit cards or Paypal.

Don't forget to double-check your application form before submitting it.

What is the cost of my Sri Lankan ETA?

The total price of a Sri Lanka ETA depends on only one thing, and that is the processing time option you select when you fill in the application form.

The Sri Lankan ETA has no cost, but you have to pay iVisa's fee if you want to get your document as soon as possible.

What are the processing times and fees for the Sri Lankan ETA?

We realize that people have different needs, which is why we prepared three options for the Sri Lankan ETA. You can choose the one that best suits your needs. These options are based on the US Passport, so we recommend you to make sure of the total price with your nationality. Nevertheless, these examples work great as an average for your ETA:

  • Standard processing – Your ETA application can be ready in 3 days with a total price of USD $100.99 including services fee.

  • Rush processing – With this option, you can get your ETA application ready in 24 hours and you must pay USD $152.99 (services fee included).

  • Super Rush processing – This is the fastest option iVisa offers, and that's why it costs USD $225.99 with services fee included. Your ETA will be ready in 12 hours.

As you can see, the options above cover almost everyone's needs, and they let you choose how much money you spend on your Sri Lanka ETA.

Another thing that you should also consider is that the fees above apply to the Sri Lanka Tourist ETA. In case you need a Sri Lanka Business ETA, the costs are a bit higher. You will be charged $70, $100, and $120 with this type of ETA.

When it comes to payment methods, iVisa lets you choose the most convenient option for you. You can use a credit or a debit card, but we accept PayPal too. You can use whichever you find most convenient.

If the cost of a Sri Lanka ETA is low or high, it is for you to decide. You are the one in charge of your budget. However, what we can guarantee is that iVisa offers some of the most competitive fees on the market, and the service is excellent. Thousands of applicants agree with that statement, and we hope that you will too.
