I'm planning a holiday to Colombo, Sri Lanka and am interested in applying for a DTV while I'm there. Has anyone here applied from there and what was your experience with the whole process? Anything I should keep in mind? Much appreciated!

A few people have posted success getting their DTV from SL. Their posts should be in the threads.

Going from posts in here, if I remember correctly, South Asian countries do not seem to be the quickest at processing.

Your first step should be to check if they cater to non-residents...
