We continue to advise exercise a high degree of caution in Sri Lanka. Flooding and landslides occur during the monsoon season. Sri Lanka continues to experience widespread impacts from Cyclone Ditwah. These impacts include flooding, landslides, and damage to infrastructure. Regular transport services may be disrupted. Check media for updates and follow the advice of local authorities (see ‘Safety’). To enter Sri Lanka, you’ll need a visa in the form of an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA). You should do this before you travel, as there are limited facilities to obtain an ETA on arrival at Colombo’s Bandaranaike International Airport (see ‘Travel’).

We advise:

Exercise a high degree of caution in Sri Lanka due to the threat of public demonstrations and security risks.
