Do UAE residents need a visa for Sri Lanka?

Yes. UAE citizens need a visa to travel to Sri Lanka because UAE is not on the exemption list for Sri Lanka visas. UAE citizens now can apply for a Sri Lanka electronic visa which saves time and costs.

Since 2012, travelers who want to enter Sri Lanka for a short-term visit can take advantage of the Sri Lanka e-Visa. This type of online visa allows visitors to visit Sri Lanka for purposes such as tourism, business, or transit. The visa application process is simple and just takes the applicants a few minutes to complete.

UAE citizens who want to come to Sri lanka for other purposes such as study abroad, work, etc, need to apply for a visa at the Sri lanka Embassy in UAE or anywhere.
