Online appointments encouraged in order to access Consular Services at Foreign Ministry
In order to avoid long waiting times in the queues and ease the congregation of the public at the Consular Services Division, the service seekers are encouraged to obtain online appointments through regional offices across the country, Foreign Ministry said.
Accordingly, the service seekers can register for online appointments through the link: http://consular.mfa.gov.lk/ONLINEBOOKING which facilitates applicants to reserve a time slot and obtain services without being in the long queues.

The division provides services using the full capacity of the officers and certificates/documents are authenticated through the Electronic Documents Attestation System (e-DAS) in its full capacity.
