A visa is required to enter Sri Lanka. You can apply for it online through the eVisa system or obtain it upon arrival. It is advisable to book the visa in advance to avoid delays. The processing is quick, usually within 24 hours. Make sure you have all the required documents ready, including your passport and return tickets.
The Bandaranaike International Airport (CMB) in Colombo is the best airport for international flights. It is located about 30 km northwest of Colombo and is well connected by public transportation. From here, you can quickly reach many popular destinations in Sri Lanka. There are regular buses, taxis, and even shuttle services to the main cities and attractions of the country.
The local currency is the Sri Lankan Rupee (LKR). Credit cards are often accepted in larger cities, but it is advisable to carry cash for smaller businesses and rural areas. ATMs are widely available, but it may be wise to bring cash from your home country. Make sure to have small bills ready for tips or small purchases.
