Citizens of Sri Lanka, the island nation located in the Indian Ocean southeast of India, now enjoy a wider range of visa-free destinations, particularly within Africa.

According to the Henley Passport Index 2025, the Sri Lankan passport has climbed five spots to rank 91st globally, sharing the position with Iran. The ranking measures global travel freedom based on the number of destinations a passport holder can enter without needing a pre-departure visa.

This year's findings reveal that Sri Lankans can travel to 42 nations and territories under arrangements that allow visa-free access, visa on arrival (VOA), or electronic travel authorisation (ETA).
