Latest news on the tourist ETA visa issues and airport queues
4 Answers
Great news! Following the massive outcry over the VFS Global delays and the hidden fees, the government has temporarily reverted to the old, simple ETA website (eta.gov.lk). Do not use any third-party websites right now, and definitely apply online before you arrive to skip the Visa on Arrival queue entirely.
Thank you so much. I will apply on the official government site today to avoid the queues.
Make absolutely sure you are using the dot gov dot lk website. There are dozens of fake websites that look official and will charge you an agency fee of 100 USD. That is the only real scam to worry about.
I applied this morning as a Canadian citizen. It cost me 50 USD and was approved in 10 minutes.
