Taiwan ordinary passports: Sri Lanka pre-arrival ETA
Sri Lanka Immigration's current universal short-term visitor instruction requires a pre-arrival ETA for foreign nationals, including ordinary Taiwan passport holders.
Taiwan is not in the named 40-nationality free-ETA cohort, so the ordinary Taiwan-passport visitor remains subject to Sri Lanka's general ETA rules and applicable fee.
Obtain the ETA before arrival for an ordinary short visit; work, residence, special documents and final admission remain separate.
Only destination governments, official immigration services, official diplomatic missions, and primary legal instruments qualify as published evidence.
