I happened to see many people are interested to live in Sri Lanka.
They find opportunities to stay here permanent.
If you are over 55 years old the best way to get a pension visa.
Without any difficulties you can apply it from the immigration and Emigration of the government of Sri Lanka.
This is a kind of visa you will be given for 2 years and renewable up to any.
You will have to remit US$15000 as a fixed deposit in any Sri Lankan bank AND you have to prove that you get a monthly remittance of US$ 1500 for the principle applicant and US$ 750 for each spouse and dependent child.
Here you can bring your children below 18 years of age.
