Planning Trip to

Sri Lanka?

Thinking about exploring Sri Lanka’s tropical beaches, tea mountains, and ancient temples? Here are a few essential travel tips to help you prepare for a smooth and unforgettable trip:
01

Visa & Documents

Australian passport holders must apply for an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) before arrival. The ETA allows up to 30 days of stay, and extensions can be applied for once you’re in Sri Lanka.
02

Currency Exchange

The local currency is the Sri Lankan Rupee (LKR).Use RedRate Exchange, with multiple branches across Australia, to secure the best AUD→LKR exchange rates and avoid airport surcharges.

03

Tipping

Tipping isn’t mandatory but is always appreciated. Restaurants and hotels: 5–10% for good service (sometimes included in the bill). Drivers, porters, or guides: LKR 200–500 for short services, more for full-day trips.
04

Transport

Sri Lanka has a variety of transport options. Tuk-tuks are ideal for short city rides—always agree on the fare before the trip. Trains offer some of the world’s most scenic journeys, especially between Kandy and Ella. Private drivers or car hires are convenient for longer routes or multi-day trips.
05

Stay Connected

SIM cards are easy to purchase at Colombo Airport. Top providers include Dialog, Mobitel, and Airtel, all offering affordable data packages and strong nationwide coverage.

About the

Sri Lankan Rupee

The Sri Lankan rupee, known until 1972 as the Ceylon rupee, is the currency of Sri Lanka. It is subdivided into 100 cents, but cents are rarely seen in circulation due to their low value. It is issued by the Central Bank of Sri Lanka. The abbreviation Re (singular) and Rs (plural) is generally used, the World Bank suggests SL Rs as a fully disambiguating abbreviation for distinction from other currencies named "rupee".
