Advantages over tourist ETA: legal work status, easier bank account, ability to lease apartment. Documentation: passport 6+ month validity, employment contract/proof, bank statements, criminal background check. Application processed 5-15 working days. Excellent value for €500-1000/month remote workers wanting Sri Lanka base.
