The process includes filing the investment application, assisting in obtaining clearances, liaison with government agencies, finding suitable premises to locate the business unit, company incorporation, opening bank accounts and tax registration.

Foreign investors can own 100% of the equity other than in a few restricted businesses and they can establish a resident company in Sri Lanka coming on their businesses under normal low SL regulations.
There are two other options where they can get additional concessions like custom duty-free importation of machinery and raw material, extended tax holidays and concessions and visa facilities. These options are available under Board of investment of Sri Lanka and Port City of Colombo.
