Japan relaxes travel advisory

In the light of the stabilisation of the security situation in Sri Lanka as a result of the large-scale and intensive investigations and security re-enforcement by the concerned authorities, the Government of Japan has relaxed the travel advisory nation-wide from level-2 (refrain from non-essential travel) to level-1 (exercise sufficient caution) on 25 June.

The Government of Japan, however, continues to advise the Japanese nationals to maintain sufficient vigilance during their stay in Sri Lanka with possible occurrence of terrorist attacks and other incidents of violence in mind.
