Eticketings, a leading travel agency in Sri Lanka, is now offering student visa services, tapping into a new market. Foreseeing the challenges students are experiencing in obtaining visa for higher educational purposes with the global COVID-19 pandemic, the company introduced the service to deliver a hassle-free visa process for ambitious Sri Lankan students. 

Closed borders and health concerns had halted international student programs. However, more countries are now opening their borders again for aspiring young students and welcoming them with open arms. 

The COVID-19 pandemic impacted the travel and tourism industry massively. It has significantly evolved in the post-COVID world, making the visa process more complicated with many other guidelines and travel protocols to follow. Many countries have made several changes to student visa arrangements to remains a priority destination for international students while controlling the spread of the virus. 

Universities in countries that are issuing student visas allow them to enter the country even for online learning. Although some programs enable to study online in their home country, their success depends on whether countries will recognise these programs for work visa qualifications or not.

"We see an increasing trend among young Sri Lankans to look beyond national boundaries for higher education and better career prospects regardless of the pandemic situation. So, we aim to provide our assistance for students looking for educational opportunities in other countries with zero consultation fee in the post-pandemic world,” said Eticketings Co-Founder and Director Hariharan Selvaraj.

"We understand customers are still cautious about planning their overseas travel. Countries are taking various measures to ensure the safety of children and to stop the spread of COVID. Universities are accepting international students at tremendously improvised hygiene measures on campus. They have provided 24/7 helpline, online counselling &support and few extended application periods. Also, a few countries have extended the post-study work visa for the students during this period," said Eticketings Chief Executive Officer Arjun Vivekanandan.
