What is a group visa for Sri Lanka?
A group visa for Sri Lanka is basically a shared travel permission given to foreign tourists who are travelling together for leisure reasons, not really requiring the usual separate tourist visa applications for each person. It’s more like one coordinated arrangement so that everyone is handled under the same authorisation.
- Size Requirement: There has to be a minimum number of people in the group, often 10 or more, but that depends on the specific diplomatic mission involved.
- Travel Logistics: Every member must come in and leave at the same time, on the same flight, together. No going solo midway, because they look at the group schedule.
- Processing: Instead of using the regular Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) portal that solo travellers use, the applications are usually submitted through registered travel agencies.
