SLTDA to issue renewal licences in one day

The Sri Lanka Tourism Development Authority (SLTDA) is now fully geared to issue renewals for accommodation and service providers in one day when the relevant documents for each category are submitted, a statement issued by the SLTDA yesterday stated.

By next week, the SLTDA will publish press advertisements in all three languages to create awareness among all stakeholders on what are the required documents of each category for registration, licences and renewals, in order to create greater awareness and transparency for much faster delivery of service.

“The SLTDA is on a drive to facilitate new registrations, issuance of licences and renewals much faster to deliver an enhanced satisfaction to the service providers. It will also strengthen the manpower for greater efficiency,” said SLTDA Chairman Kishu Gomes.

He further stated that the software system is being revamped to make the online registration, renewal and issuance of licences more user-friendly.
