Due to a technical fault in the computer system of the Foreign Affairs Ministry’s Consular Affairs Division, document authentication in Colombo and regional offices in Jaffna, Trincomalee, Matara, Kandy, Kurunegala will be limited until further notice, the Foreign Affairs Ministry announced.
The Ministry said at present, the Consular Division is processing only the most urgent documents while other documents will be processed once the system is repaired.
“Other consular services continue without any interruption. The public will be notified once the verification process is in full operation. Any inconvenience caused to the public due to the technical glitch is deeply regretted,” the Ministry said.
