Vaccination Cards Or PCR Reports – What Should Indian Travellers Carry To Sri Lanka?

According to a recent development, all Indians visiting Sri Lanka would now need to adhere to the nation’s updated COVID-19 regulations. The Indian High Commission recently informed the public of the same.
All visitors to the island nation will now be forced to carry their vaccination cards, and unvaccinated travellers will also be required to carry a negative PCR report that was received 72 hours before to arrival in the nation, in accordance with Sri Lanka’s new COVID-19 regulations.
As was previously reported, Sri Lanka ceased requiring international travellers to present a COVID-19 immunisation certificate as of December 7, 2022. It was also no longer necessary to present a COVID-19 test (PCR/Rapid Antigen Test) (RAT) that was negative before to boarding or upon arrival.

Sri Lanka new Vaccination and PCR rules kick in on Monday

According to sources, the updated COVID-19 regulations went into effect on Friday. The Indian High Commission then released a statement urging Indian citizens visiting Sri Lanka to abide by the most recent COVID 19 regulations.
Sri Lankan authorities have revealed additional information on the updated recommendation and stated that they will closely monitor any new COVID-19-related developments in cooperation with the health authorities.
Due to unfavourable travel warnings issued by the majority of nations during the exceptional economic crisis and the street protests that resulted in a change of government in the island nation last year, the Sri Lankan tourist industry also took a significant hit.
