Buying SIM Card at the Airport
If — like most visitors — you arrive into the country at Bandaranaike International Airport near Colombo, buying a SIM card will be extremely simple. As you exit the baggage reclaim area, you’ll encounter a row of money changers followed by a row of cell company vendors, as well as several ATMs that will take international cards.
If you’ve got a few minutes, ask around at each vendor and see which one has the best rates at the time. Bear in mind that you’ll probably pay a little more at these stalls – they only offer ‘tourist packages,’ which are more expensive than standard plans.
The tourist packages ran around 1200 LKR (~$10) for the SIM card with 2GB of data and more local and international calls and SMS .
Here are the links to main service providers which will make you easy.
