The Expat Sri Lanka Chapter welcomes you!
Piliganimu & enna vishayam and a heart-felt welcome to the InterNations community for expats in Sri Lanka! Our international network caters to your specific needs and supports you in relocating to and putting down roots in Sri Lanka. Living abroad in a foreign country is definitely a great intercultural experience, but typically brings up a lot of questions for expatriates Sri Lanka: ʺWhat is the best international school for my kids in Sri Lanka?ʺ, ʺHow do I find a job for my spouse in Galle?ʺ or ʺWhere in Colombo can I meet fellow expats and compatriots from my home country?” Just to name a few examples…
InterNations aim is to help you, as an expatriate, in becoming part of the Sri Lanka expat community and exploring the Sri Lankan way of life in all its aspects: From enjoying the traditional rice and curry to celebrating Tamil Thai Pongal Day.
Next to Sri Lanka we host several more communities in Asia & Oceania, e.g., our network of Pakistan expats. Or you might be interested in our expat Malaysia community which is also fairly active.

Enjoy the Sri Lanka Expats Living
With attractions ranging from the cultural heartland of Sri Lanka to cool highland hill retreats, Sri Lanka fascinates expatriates and globetrotters of many nationalities every year. The growing expat Sri Lanka community is, however, mostly drawn to the country by the urban growth of Colombo and its political as well as economic challenges, e.g. in the rubber industry. Whether you move to and live in Sri Lanka for professional or private reasons, you’ll surely take with you lifelong memories of great international experiences and intercultural exchange.
