The Sri Lanka High Commission in London announced a temporary halt in issuing Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) approval notices due to technical problems. 


Travellers who have already applied can continue with their plans and will be verified upon arrival at Bandaranaike International Airport (BIA). 


Authorities are working quickly to resolve the issue and apologize for the inconvenience. 


Airlines have been informed to allow passengers without approval notices to board flights.
