Visa costs for Sri Lanka

The cost of a visa to enter Sri Lanka depends on several factors, including the type of visa, the nationality of the applicant and the processing time. An Electronic Tourist Visa (ETA) is available for tourists, citizens of many countries, which allows you to stay in the country for up to 30 days. A consular fee is charged when applying for a visa, and there may be a service charge for additional services. These services may include completing an online visa application, obtaining valid international health insurance, and priority service. These optional additional services can help speed up the processing process and ensure the safety of travelers while traveling.

For travelers who plan to stay in Sri Lanka for more than 30 days or have other travel purposes, visas with different validity periods are available, which may also reflect the entry rules for citizens of a particular country.

We recommend using the visa calculator, which will allow you to calculate the total cost including all fees and services, which is especially convenient for those who are applying for a visa to Sri Lanka for the first time.
