Govt lifts import ban on all items, except vehicles

Date:

Colombo (LNW): Finance State Minister Ranjith Siyambalapitiya today (09) announced the government’s decision to remove all import bans effective from today, with the exception of restrictions on vehicle imports.

These stringent import measures were initially implemented in March 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and its economic ramifications.

While the government of Sri Lanka started to progressively relax these restrictions on various goods since November 2022, the ban on vehicle imports remains in place.
