Hello there Floriana Violetta,

Welcome on board聽

Just to inform you that a new thread has been started from your post on the Sri Lanka forum so that you may get some feedbacks.

All the very best,
Bhavna

You should have a look at the Board of Investment website:

BOI is mainly for large investments, you nned to get approvals for your bar from local bodies and need to register your business. Sri Lanka welcome FDI s and provide many incentives depends on the type of teh business.

Great place to start a chill out bar for sure. I am also waiting for some clarity about the new proposed laws to convince a friend to invest with me as there is a great place up for sale in the area.

Hopefully I can聽 share more news on this soon!

Cheers!

You business falls in to a sensitive category.
Pubs, bars required special licenses and dealing with local governing bodies found to be bit of time consuming (as many of them carrying no or little language skills to guide you through).

If you have or known a decent place around said area, I would suggest you to setup a boutique hotel targetting the Italian tourists.

I don't know your investment capacity but this is the best way to request the license to operate a pub.

You can get the things done through BOI, Tourist Board than reaching the local governing bodies.

Usually they do get the permissions for such investments.

Cheers
