Obtaining an eVisa before departure is mandatory to travel to Sri Lanka, particularly if you are of French nationality.
eVisas are offered for tourist and business travel.
To be noted:
– no visa is issued upon arrival in the country. Therefore, the traveler must make their request before departure.
– the request can only be submitted a maximum of 3 months before departure.
To be able to enter Sri Lankan territory, the traveler must bring their passport (valid for at least 6 months after the date of entry into the territory), a copy of their eVisa, proof of resources for the length of stay as well as a return flight ticket.
However, only arrivals by plane are possible with an eVisa (Colombo-Bandaranaike, Jaffna, or Mattala airports).
To date, arrivals by sea, particularly cruises, are not eligible for the eVisa.
No health restrictions on entry to Sri Lanka.
It should be noted that, even if the traveler is in possession of all the documents required to validate his entry into Sri Lanka, the Sri Lankan authorities reserve the right to refuse access to their territory without having to justify it.
The eVisa is valid for 3 months for a maximum stay of 60 days on site (Tourism: double entry / Business: multiple entry) and for double entries.
NB : The lead times given here are the ones from Consulates and/or Embassies.
Beware of eVisa scams on fraudulent websites. They offer you eVisas at low prices, which can be obtained very quickly,… but this often leads to nothing! And of course… you will lose the amount of your payment made online!
