✈️ Big News for Tourists: Temporary Driving Licences Now Available at Sri Lanka Airports! 🛵
Traveling to Sri Lanka just got a whole lot easier for tourists who want the freedom to explore the island on their own. The Foreign Employment and Tourism Ministry has announced that starting August, foreign visitors can obtain temporary driving licences directly upon arrival at the airport. This exciting update is a game-changer for anyone planning to rent a scooter or motorbike in Sri Lanka—and at Go Odyssey, we’re here to make your journey even smoother.
SRI LANKAN DMT
✅ What’s New?
Until now, travelers who wanted to drive in Sri Lanka needed to visit the Department of Motor Traffic (DMT) in Werahera to get a temporary driving licence—a process often seen as inconvenient and time-consuming.
Under the new system:
Tourists can apply for and receive their temporary licence at the airport when they land.
No more long trips to Werahera or wasted vacation time.
This initiative is part of Sri Lanka’s effort to make travel easier and improve the tourist experience.
Further details on the application process and required documents will be released soon, but this update means your scooter adventure in Sri Lanka just became a lot more convenient.
