Sri Lankan citizens can now apply for the authentication of their birth, marriage, and death certificates through the Consular Affairs Division’s online platform.
According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the authenticated certificates will be sent to the applicant via email, eliminating the need for in-person application or collection of the authenticated documents.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs launched the online authentication process in partnership with the Registrar General’s Department at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs yesterday.
The procedures for online authentication of birth, marriage, and death certificates are as follows:
Visit the official website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and submit an online application through the portal provided: https://mfa.gov.lk/online-consular-services/
Once the details are submitted, applicants will receive a link to make the required payments. The fee for certificate generation and authentication should be paid online through this link.
After completing the transaction, the authenticated document (customer copy) will be emailed to the address provided by the applicant. The customer copy needs to be submitted to the relevant foreign missions as required.
For any inquiries, the Consular Affairs Division of the Ministry can be reached via the hotlines 011-2338812 or 0112-446302, and via e-mail at: [email protected] (Newswire)
