I’m planning a short trip to Sri Lanka in late 2025 and I’m applying for the Sri Lanka ETA (Electronic Travel Authorization) online with my Indian passport. I wanted to check with those who’ve applied recently – how long does it usually take to get the ETA approved? Is it instant, or can it take a few days? I’m a bit nervous because my travel dates are close, so I’d like to know if I should apply weeks in advance or if same-day approval is possible. Also, do they send an email confirmation right away, or do I need to check the website manually? Would love to hear about your recent experiences – how long it actually took for you to get your ETA approved. Thanks in advance!”
