Tourism in Sri Lanka is growing rapidly. For centuries, Sri Lanka is a popular attraction for foreign tourists. Chinese traveler Fa-Hien visited Sri Lanka as early as the 4th century, and in the 12th century Italian explorer, Marco Polo claimed that Sri Lanka is the "world's largest island". Government initiatives in tourism development can be traced back to 1937 when the Ceylon Tourism Board was founded. However, due to the Second World War, it was closed in September 1939. After independence of Sri Lanka, the Ceylon Tourism Bureau, which reestablished the function to inherit the Tourism Bureau, reviewed the promotion of tourism again. With the promulgation of Act No. 10 of 1966 formal approval of the tourism department of the country was achieved. This regulates the law concerning the establishment of the Ceylon Tourism Board.

Tourism belongs to the Ministry of Tourism. The four parts are Sri Lanka Tourism Development Bureau (Sri Lanka Tourism Board established in 1966, founded in 1966), Sri Lanka Hotel Management Association, and Sri Lanka Convention Bureau. The Sri Lankan Tourism Development Bureau is responsible for all tourism development activities, but responsibility for all marketing and promotion is the responsibility of the Tourism Promotion Committee.
