Sri Lanka Tourist Visa May 2024.
Update – Sri Lanka Tourist Visa May 2024.
Visiting Sri Lanka just got more expensive as the country outsources the online system for getting your visa.
The visa price has increased from US$50 to US$75.
However, there will also be an administrative fee of US$18.50 charged by the company that issues your holiday visa.
What are the visa fee costs?
The only government authorised vehicle to purchase your online visa is operated by IVS-GBS and VFS Global.
There is an eVisa fees waiver scheme for citizens of China, India, Indonesia, Russia, Thailand, Malaysia, and Japan.
You can see the visa fees in the following link.
Where do I buy my Sri Lankan Tourist Visa?
The best place to buy your visa is online at the official government website.
The outsourcing and increase in fees appears to have taken many by surprise.Â
