Question 1

How do I check if a job agency is SLBFE licensed?

Accepted Answer

Type the agency's license number or name into the search box on this page. It's checked against the official Sri Lanka Bureau of Foreign Employment (SLBFE) register and shows whether the license is currently valid, suspended, or cancelled.

Question 2

What does it mean if an agency's license is suspended or cancelled?

Accepted Answer

A suspended or cancelled license means SLBFE has withdrawn that agency's authorization to recruit workers for overseas jobs, often due to misconduct or complaints. Do not pay money or sign a contract with an agency in this status.

Question 3

Is expathjobs.com an official SLBFE website?

Accepted Answer

No. expathjobs.com is an independent, free tool and is not operated by or affiliated with SLBFE or the Government of Sri Lanka. For official confirmation, contact SLBFE directly or visit slbfe.lk.

Question 4

How often is the license data updated?

Accepted Answer

This tool reads SLBFE's public registers every few hours, and every result shows the date of SLBFE's list and when we last checked it. It was last checked Oct 5, 2026, 4:17 AM.
