Iran visa for Sri Lankan citizens

When planning your trip from Iran to Sri Lanka, remember that an e-visa is your key to entry, offering a maximum stay of 30 days. You'll find options for tourist, business, or transit visas, each with its own specific application process. While most flights connect through major hubs like Dubai or Doha, be mindful of the significant time zone difference, as Sri Lanka is 2.5 hours ahead of Tehran. For currency, the Sri Lankan Rupee (LKR) is the local tender, so exchanging some cash before you arrive can be quite convenient.
