Sri Lanka is reopening to tourists after more than nine months of travel bans due to COVID-19

After nine months of travel bans imposed under the COVID-19 pandemic, Sri Lanka is reopening to tourists.

Officials initially hoped to reopen in August, but were forced to push the date back after the novel coronavirus continued to spread around the globe.
