The Consular Affairs Division of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is set to launch an e-Channeling Appointment System for authentication services with effect from 29 September 2022.
The new system has been created by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in collaboration with SLT Mobitel.
The Foreign Ministry said this will facilitate the public to receive effective services in the Authentication Section of the Consular Affairs Division.
The e-Channeling Appointment System will enable the public to obtain online appointments for authentication of documents at the Consular Affairs Division and its Regional Consular Offices in Jaffna, Trincomalee, Kandy, Kurunegala, and Matara.
The public seeking authentication services may dial 225 (Mobile subscribers) or 1225 (landline subscribers) and via Mobitel e-channeling (www.echannelling.com) to obtain an appointment.
Appointments can also be obtained by accessing the official website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs at www.mfa.gov.lk.
The Foreign Ministry said from 29 September 2022 onwards the authentication section of the Consular Affairs Division and its Regional Consular Offices will accept service requests only through the e-Channeling Appointment System. (NewsWire)
