The Cabinet of Ministers has granted approval to the proposal furnished by the Minister of Public Security to take necessary steps to introduce three new VISA categories for Colombo Port City.

Accordingly, the new Visa categories are ‘Investment VISA’ category for investors under residential VISA category, ‘Employment VISA’ for employees and ‘CPC residential property lease vendor’ VISA category for foreigners who reside within the Colombo Port City on lease.

Issuance of VISA and fulfilling other relevant activities to the investors and other relevant parties expected to arrive for various services such as international trade, navel and monitoring, financial, information technology and tourism in the Colombo Port City should be done by the Department of Immigration and Emigration.
