What the application actually requires

  • Free ETA obtained online before travel. Free does not mean optional.
  • Return or onward ticket within 30 days.

Four ways this application goes wrong

None of these are exotic. Every one of them is fixable in the ten minutes before you hit submit.

Paying for the ETA

It is free for Indians. Agent sites charge anyway and many travellers pay without checking.

Arriving without the ETA

Registration is still required even though the fee is waived.

Assuming the waiver is permanent

It has been extended in blocks. Check before you book.

Sri Lanka: your questions

Is Sri Lanka visa free for Indians?

Yes, for stays up to 30 days. You still need to register for the free ETA online before you travel.

Do I have to pay for the Sri Lanka ETA?

No. It is free for Indian passport holders on the official site. Third-party sites charge a fee for the same free registration.

Do I need a return ticket?

Yes, within your 30 days. It is checked at the gate in India.

Worth knowing before you go

  • The Kandy to Ella train is the point of going, not a way to get somewhere. Book reserved second class about a month ahead and sit on the right leaving Kandy.
  • Tuk-tuks in Colombo have meters and drivers will avoid using them. PickMe is the local app and settles the argument.
  • The island has two monsoons on opposite coasts. When the west is washed out the east is perfect, so a bad forecast rarely means a bad trip.
  • Take off shoes and hats at temples and cover your shoulders. Photographs with your back to a Buddha statue genuinely cause offence and have led to arrests.
