Sri Lanka visa requirements for Bangladeshi citizens

Bangladeshi citizens need a travel authorization to enter Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka is not visa-free for Bangladeshi passport holders, so approval must be obtained before traveling.

iVisa offers two Sri Lankan entry documents for Bangladeshi travelers:

Sri Lanka Tourist ETA: an online travel authorization issued for Bangladeshi citizens visiting Sri Lanka for tourism or leisure. The Tourist ETA usually allows a stay of up to 30 days. Travelers must have a passport valid for at least 6 months, provide basic travel details, and pay the ETA fee.
Sri Lanka Business ETA: an online travel authorization issued for Bangladeshi citizens traveling to Sri Lanka for business-related purposes, such as meetings or conferences. The Business ETA also usually allows a stay of up to 30 days.

General Sri Lankan entry requirements for Bangladeshi travelers are:
Bangladeshi passport valid for at least 6 months
Approved Sri Lanka Tourist ETA of Business ETA
Proof of onward or return travel
Evidence of sufficient funds
Other supporting documents depending on purpose or situation
