Sri Lanka had announced plans to introduce the Sri Lanka Digital Nomad Visa in 2021; however, its implementation has been delayed, likely attributed to the unrest experienced during that year.

For those interested in working remotely in Sri Lanka, digital nomads and foreign citizens have an alternative option. They can opt for a 30-day Sri Lanka ETA (Electronic Travel Authorization) to facilitate remote operations within the country. As of now, there is no stipulated minimum monthly income prerequisite for this arrangement.
