Entry visa (consular)：スリランカ → チュニジア
Sri Lankan citizens living in the United States still need an entry visa for Tunisia — the MFA's visa-regime table lists Sri Lanka as visa-required and Tunisia has no tourist e-Visa. Because you apply at the Tunisian mission covering your country of residence, from the US you lodge your file in person at the Embassy of Tunisia in Washington, DC, at least 15 days before travelling.
Tunisia's entry visa for short visits — tourism, business or family. There is no tourist e-Visa: nationalities not on the MFA's exemption list apply in person at the Tunisian embassy or consulate serving their country of residence.
- 有効期間
- No fixed validity period is published for the consular entry visa — the dates and entries are set on the issued visa; prepare your file with the mission at least 15 days before your travel date
- 入国回数
- As specified on the issued visa
- 1回の最大滞在日数
- As granted on the issued visa — for longer stays a residence permit (carte de séjour) is required
手続き開始時期
出発日の 15 日〜30 日 前から手続きを開始してください。
Tunisia's Ministry of Foreign Affairs publishes a country-by-country visa-regime table ("Régime de Visas Avec Les Pays Tiers"). Sri Lanka's row reads "Visa d'entrée en Tunisie: OUI" — an entry visa is required before travelling. Tunisia offers no tourist e-Visa, so the consular route is the only official one.
The MFA's country-information dataset lists the Embassy of the Republic of Tunisia in New Delhi, which is accredited for Sri Lanka. Contact it before you assemble your file — jurisdictions and opening hours are published on the official portal.
The MFA's entry procedures tell applicants in countries with Tunisian consular services to prepare their papers with the Tunisian consulate at least 15 days before the date of travelling — ask the mission for its current application form and document checklist.
You must be personally present at the Tunisian embassy or consulate in your country of residence to apply for the visa and explain the reasons and circumstances of your travel — bring your bookings, invitation or itinerary to the counter.
Once the visa is issued, check its dates and entries before you fly. At entry, every foreign national must hold a passport valid for at least six months from the date of entry and a visa when required.

申請場所
アメリカ合衆国での申請場所
管轄地区のセンターで申請Living in the United States, you apply at the Tunisian mission with jurisdiction over your US state of residence — the Embassy of Tunisia in Washington, DC, which serves the United States. The MFA rule is to be personally present at the Tunisian embassy or consulate in your country of residence, so a US-resident Sri Lankan national files in person in Washington rather than in Sri Lanka.

知っておくと便利
- The official route is in person at the mission — Tunisia publishes no tourist e-Visa portal, so treat any site selling a Tunisia "e-visa" as unofficial.
- The MFA's e-Consulate portal (econsulat.tn) lists the standard file — legibly filled and signed forms, one photo, a copy of the passport ID page (6+ months validity), a copy of your residence permit where applicable, and a hotel reservation, professional invitation or legalized attestation of accommodation — and asks you to allow at least 20 days from filing.
- Tunisia has no mission on Sri Lanka's own territory: in case of travel difficulties the covering embassy can arrange a visa issued at Tunis-Carthage airport backed by a note verbale — the note does not bind airlines or transit countries, so arrange it well in advance.
- A visa does not guarantee entry — border officials make the final decision, and your passport must be valid for six months from the date of entry.
