Sri Lankans or foreigners of Sri Lankan origin (holders of dual citizenship) will be allowed to travel on any commercial/non-repatriation flights to Sri Lanka without the approval of the Foreign Secretary (or) Civil Aviation Authority, subject to the limit of passengers per flight determined by the Civil Aviation Authority, based on concurrence/ consultation of National Operation Centre for Prevention of COVID-19 Outbreak (NOPCO) and subject to compliance with paid quarantining at a designated hotel, the Foreign Ministry said.
The Ministry said this decision was made by the Foreign Ministry, the Department of Immigration and the Civil Aviation Authority and agreed by the Presidential Task Force for Economic Revival and Poverty Alleviation.
“It is the sole responsibility of the airline concerned to ensure that the passengers allowed on board under the above arrangement will strictly adhere to the paid quarantine,” the Ministry said.
The Foreign Ministry and the NOPCO will arrange special repatriation flights for the government quarantine facilities in coordination with Sri Lanka Missions overseas for migrant workers, students, patients, short-term visa holders, government and military officials.
