RESERAPPORT SRI LANKA

Här kommer en liten rapport från styrelseledamoten Christina Riddebäck i Sweden-Sri Lanka Business Council (www.sslbc.se)

När jag med barn och barnbarn reste hit 8 december 2021 gick allt som smort.

Vi behövde:

1) Vaccinationsbevis (2-3 sprutor Om du inte tagit den 3:e försök få den)

2) PCR test som är negativ  –

3) Elektronisk hälsodeklaration

https://airport.lk/health_declaration/index

När du fyller i hälsodeklarationen ska du samtidigt bifoga vaccinationsbevis och PCR test när allt detta är klart får du en QR kod som du sedan scannar på flygplatsen i Colombo. Sen är det bara att åka in i landet.

Alla dokument bör finnas i både pappersformat och digitalt blev vi tipsade om. Jag passerade på flygplatsen i Clb medan en i sällskapet fick visa allt i pappersform också.

Sedan vi åkte in i landet har ingen efterfrågat dessa papper. Vissa hotell uppger att dom kommer efterfråga tex vaccinationsbevis men ingen har ännu frågat oss.

Läget i landet

100% av befolkningen använder munskydd när dom är utanför hemmet förutom när dom äter.

Inte alla hotell och restauranger är öppna.

boka för att få bada även om man är gäst.

Vad vi vet är de flesta gym öppna.

Ett varningens finger för att boka flyg med några av lågprisbolagen. Sett att flera inte kommit iväg pga av inställda resor.

Vi reste med Qatar och det funkade 100%.

Välkommen till paradisön!
