This comes after successful tourism promotions in France and The Netherlands by the Sri Lanka Tourist Board (SLTB).
The German travel advisory’s earlier advice against travelling to Sri Lanka if “not essential” has been deleted.
SLTB Director in Germany Channa Jayasekera said: “This is most encouraging to the tour operators and travel agents selling Sri Lanka, as the earlier advisory led to confusion and was negatively interpreted by the public.”
A stakeholders meeting organised by SLTB’s UK Office, which included the PATA UK Chapter and the UK’s Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO), resulted in the FCO further softening its travel advisory to Sri Lanka.
