I heard Sri Lanka expanded the free visa scheme to 40 countries this April. Is the fee currently waived for Australian passports.

Accepted Answer

The expanded free ETA scheme for 40 nations, including Australia, the UK, and the US, was officially activated earlier this month. While you still need to apply online through the official portal, the processing fee is waived. This is part of the 2026 tourism push to hit arrival targets.

Make sure to use the official gov.lk site. Avoid third party agents who may still try to charge you a service fee for the free authorization.
