PUBLIC DAY
The Sri Lankans in Southern India could meet the Head of Mission between 10.00 a.m to 1.00 p.m without prior appointment on Wednesdays.
The above arrangement is being launched as part of the implementation of policy set out in the Mahinda Chintana, to enhance ties with the expatriate Sri Lankan community to promote Sri Lanka’s interests overseas.
Citizens of India for tourist purpose can enter Sri Lanka without a prior visa and will be allowed an entry visa on arrival.
No one who travels in Sri Lanka disputes the fact that streams and rills, running in search of a haven in which to settle down, make significant contribution to the scenic splendour of the mountain region.
Sri Lanka contains the most famous cultural and arheological reminders of a rich civilization more than 2500 years old. Escavations during the last 100 years have pushed back years of jungle encroachment and restored many ancient sites and access to them.
Sri Lanka is positioned as the Gateway to Asia, with its open economy, superior logistics for serving as a regional trade hub, a resilient work force and ground breaking market access with the Indo-Lanka Free Trade Agreement (FTA) to the world's largest market.
