Thank you so much for the lovely feedback ❤🇱🇰 It motivates me to create more videos about amazing Sri Lanka!

Sorry I am not 100% sure about rules for indian , please check off.page. The last update I heard was indian free.

Yes, Visa on arrival is still available for EU citizens. If you travel in the peak season (Dec-April) I would do the e-visa to avoid a long waiting line after arrival. 😊

No, not online at the moment. You can arrive on a normal 30 days tourist visa and then extend that after arriving in Sri Lanka.

You are welcome 😊 🙏

@@sandrahoffmann6711 Please fill out the form on our web page: www.ateasehotel.com/sri-lanka-travel And I can send the program for your family 😊👍

Thank you 😊

Not at the moment. Only 30 days ETA you can get online, and then you can extend that after arriving in Sri Lanka.

@SriLankaTravelatease thank you for the answer. Do you know, If it's complicated to recieve this Visum?

Hello, its possible to get visa on arrival? We want flight tomorrow and not sure if to buy ticket or not :)

@@lietuva5362 Yes, visa on arrival is still available 😊👍 Go to Sri Lanka ❤You will not regret it!

@@gonergy You can aplu for extrension online, (see info in my link). or by visiting the immigration office in Colombo.

The ETA-system is just an e-mail cinfirmation. The visa is electronically attached to your passport, so no need to print anything. 😊 👍 Enjoy Sri Lanka!

@@texgraham4883 yes, visa on arrival is still possible 😊👍

Yes, the link to my updated web page in the description 👍

Check my link in the description. I keep that page updated 😊

Do you have get an e visa then

Yes, its up an running. See my page Linked in the description, I keep that updated 😊👍

Yes, it is a bit further south than our Hotel, a very peaceful and Nice location 😊👍

Ok👍

I am not sure about rules for Indian passports, please check with the Embassy in your country…

Sorry! There are new and updated information since this video, please check my latest visa shorts video for more details.

All explained here: www.ateasehotel.com/visa-to-sri-lanka/

30 days tourist visa.

Happy to hear that you find my videos helpful 🙏 Since the system is changing a lot these days, I would wait a while before applying. Apply about 1 week before you travel, you will get confirmation about visa within 24 hours (normally within a few hours) 👍

Hi there, thank you for your video. I think we got same cruise With Pauline. The transit visa is just two days, but the cruise will stay two ports for two and half days. Can we still apply the transit visa? Or we have to apply 30 days tourist visa.

@@Leonliu-kx8iu I am not 100% sure about rules for cruise passengers, normally our guests stay for weeks here in Sri Lanka. However if the cruise-line tells to arrange transit visa, that is what they been informed. 😊👍

Thank you for watching 🙏

Yes, visa on arrival is still available. Enjoy beautiful Sri Lanka 🇱🇰😊

You are welcome 🙏😊

Hello. Yes it was announced as a suggestion, however not approved yet. We just had a new president elected and I doubt there will be any News about this before the new parlament is set in November. We will just wait and see

Great if they introduce the free visa system, think it would encourage more travellers?, but not the end of the world if they dont!, im just glad that at least i can get a visa now, in time for november, so all is fine, i followed your tutorial for visa application last year... and all went through smoothly, thanks

@@jimjones567 Thank you ❤ So happy that my visa-video washelpful for you!! Yes, I also think that people that really want to visit Sri Lanka will find the visa-price worth it. I am positive you will enjoy your holiday in November. 🙏

Thank you for feedback. Did you use it now? Was everything working smooth, and payment ok?

The free visa agreement is an agreements between some Asian countries (much like EU ) nothing to do with communism.. Agree on the tech side of the webpage could be improved though…

👍Happy to share the good news

@@thomasbiba1912 Yes, Good to have a system up running again. 50 USD for all Europeans.. There has been some news about a possible free visa from October, but nothing confirmed from the new government. If you have time, you should wait a bit and see..

No, don´t need a photo. Just your passport and to pay 🙏

free Visa regime is implemented for nationals of China, India, Indonesia, Russia, Thailand, Malaysia, and Japan

I can of course not guarantee for safety here on anywhere. However, I consider Sri Lanka very safe (if not I would not live here with my children ;) After the election I sense a really positive, and optimistic vibe around. Have not heard about any terror threats. From where did you read that?

@@SriLankaTravelatease Hi, that's good news. It's just some web pages that say about terror threats, but the reality of a country and outside perceptions are always mixed up. Thank you for your reply.

@@sambailey8378 yes, especially European media seems to share mainly negative news from Sri Lanka. Never the good stories…

Just add details of the first one. That´s enough

@@melidelgado2836 What is your country? For most people passport is enough. Sometimes they ask for return ticket. If asked to prove you have funds (very unlikely) to show a credit card is enough.

​@@SriLankaTravelateaseare you sure they usually don't ask for return ticket? My home country is Slovenia. I'm coming to SL tomorrow and I plan to stay until December or January. I don't know exactly when I will go home.

@@Karma-70 Im not sure If they accept Australian dolllars, know for sure USD and EUR.

@@SriLankaTravelatease thank you, we arrive on the 26th October, hopefully we can do it on line by then

@@Karma-70 Yes, I hope the e-visa system will be up and running soon. I will keep you updated here on the channel.

Still no update on what will be the situation in November…

Hello Sir, May I ask for the update about your trip to Sri Lanka? Did you apply for evisa or you just paid the VOA? Thanks

The info in this video is still valid👍 visa on arrival only.

@@SriLankaTravelatease thanks for prompt reply

@@vijayafernando1 🥰Thank you! That means a lot to me🙏

@@claudiapirani8948 Hello Claudia. Please visit immigration office in Colombo.

@@SriLankaTravelatease i'm in meditation center 4 hours out of Colombo, i will not make on time to change my flight ticket. Unfortunetly this seems to be very complicated.

@@claudiapirani8948 I think it’s the only option right now… Or to pay an agent to go for you. I am hoping the whole visa situation will be better within few weeks after the election, but that might not be in time for you…

@@SriLankaTravelatease thank you for your answer

@@GKM-zb9tr Please watch the video, all is explained there 😊

@@andreacapasso5376 Normally you can extend all visas by visiting the immigration office in Colombo😊 The rules at the moment are a bit unclear.. When do you travel?

I will be in Sri Lanka from October, and I was hoping until December if I find a way to stay more than 2 months

@@andreacapasso5376 I hope within a few weeks the rules will be more clear. I will update here on TH-cam when I know more😊

after the 2nd month 30 day extension ....i have to leave the country to re enter. No issuing of 3 month or 6 month visas as far as I have found out. So Chennai for 6 hrs to fly back the same day!

@@geetazoe Thank you for getting in touch, I got the e-mail and will reply to you tomorrow morning. Thank you and have a great evening😊

Thank you for the comment. As I said in the video - right now visa on arrival. No need to fill out online before travel. As far as I know Indian nationalities get Free visa to Sri Lanka.
