Simple just go and submit your data on the official Online Sri Lankan Visa http://www.eta.gov.lk/slvisa/

1) You can ask to our Managers and we can organize it for you, using our Professional Partner Visa Agent
 
2) If you want to extend your visa yourself you will have to make your way to the office of the Department of Immigration and Emigration in Battaramulla, Colombo. This is the official government office where you can get your visa extended in Sri Lanka.
 
3) What you need to bring: get visa extension form from the counter inside the office. Make sure you have a passport-size photograph pasted on the visa extension form. If you don’t have photo, you can have one made. You can do this outside the office or inside of the office (on the first floor) for about Rs.250 . If you don’t have any glue to paste the photo on the visa extension document, there is some inside the office on level C (where you will need to go to pick up the forms, which is also the waiting room). Cash/credit card for visa extension fee, please check this website for the fee per country. An official requirement is to have a ‘proof of onward flight and ‘sufficient funds’, however in our experience they never really ask for this. Definitely when getting the first 2 extra months (to a total of 3) extension, just make sure you don’t look like a beggar when you are at the office. Last but not least: your passport, with of course more than 6 months of validity!
 
4) The record by following these steps for your visa extension is currently set at 1 hour and 50 minutes, arriving at 8AM and leaving at 9.50AM.
 
5) The visa extension costs are listed here and vary per country you are from.
