When is the best time to apply for my German visa to Sri Lanka?

The best time to apply for a Sri Lanka visa from Germany is at least 07 days before their travel. After the Sri Lanka visa application has been submitted, it is processed within 05 hours to 03 business days. The processing time of an ETA depends on the applicant’s choice.

Sri Lanka Immigration Services created 3 different processing time options for the Sri Lanka ETA from which customers can choose the one that best suits their needs.

  • Normal: This is a standardized waiting time option. German nationals will receive their ETA visa within 3 business days. This service is mostly chosen by Germans owing to its cheap fee.
  • Urgent: German citizens can receive their ETA visa within 24 hours.
  • Super urgent: This option is designed for German travelers who do not have enough time to wait for their visa in some cases. Sri Lanka Immigration Services will assist them to get their ETA within just 5 business hours.

Citizens of Germany must bear in mind that they will be charged differently depending on the processing time for their visas. In addition, Germans should ensure that they obtain enough required documents before beginning their application process for ETA. Therefore, the process will be smooth and quick.
