Welcome to the Official Website of the Embassy of Sri Lanka in Arab Republic of Egypt

Formal diplomatic relations between Sri Lanka and Egypt were established in 1957, with both countries opening resident diplomatic missions in their respective capitals in the same year. Egypt was the first African country to establish a resident mission in Sri Lanka, in 1957.

The Embassy of Sri Lanka in Egypt is situated on Sri Lanka Street in Zamalek, Cairo. This street was named in 1986 to commemorate 100 years since the arrival of Orabi Pasha, a notable Egyptian freedom fighter exiled to Sri Lanka in 1882 under British rule. In return, Orabi Pasha Street in Maradana, Colombo, was named in his honor. The Sri Lankan Embassy in Cairo is also accredited to Tunisia, Morocco, Eritrea, Algeria, Sudan, and Libya.
