1. Sri Lankan passport holders do not require the Covid-19 insurance coverage when travelling to Sri Lanka.
2. Tourist Visa requires a mandatory Sri Lanka Covid-19 insurance coverage to be purchased online https://portal.pionline.lk/covidinsurance/ or on arrival.
The insurance costs USD 12 for the mandatory one-month insurance and has a cover of USD 50,000 including hospitalization if needed due to Covid-19 infection.
We recommend you to obtain the insurance online prior to departure. If you are unable to do so, you can purchase the policy prior to leaving the airport in Sri Lanka.
