What is a group visa for Sri Lanka?

A group visa for Sri Lanka comes as an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA). It is meant for several tourists moving together, for sightseeing, medical care or cultural events. It is basically set up to make the whole thing less complicated, where one representative can submit everything for the whole set.

If you are applying for a group Tourist ETA, the principal applicant files one application that includes passport details, travel dates, and personal information for each person in the group. That way, you do not need separate submissions from everybody, and the administrative side becomes faster. In most cases, this group ETA allows a stay for 30 days, with double-entry privileges for holidaying. To prevent odd hitches, missed checkpoints, or last-minute delays after arrival, it is strongly advised to get the ETA approval online through the official Sri Lankan immigration portal well before you board your flight.
