Visa requirements for Sri Lankan citizens are administrative entry restrictions by the authorities of other states placed on citizens of Sri Lanka. As of February 2018, Sri Lankan citizens had visa-free or visa on arrival access to 42 countries and territories, ranking the Sri Lankan passport 94th in terms of travel freedom (tied with Myanmar passports) according to the Henley Passport Index. Although Sri Lanka is a middle income country, successive Sri Lankan governments have made little or no efforts to improve the standing of the passport. Considering the extent of the Sri Lankan diaspora, a passport with wider access to the world could contribute to a more competitive and future ready society.
