Sri Lanka Calculators & Converters
Free calculators for the money and land questions people in Sri Lanka ask most. Work out the monthly instalment (EMI) on a loan before you go to the bank. Convert perches to square feet from a deed or survey plan. Check the EPF and ETF on a payslip, or add or remove 18% VAT on an invoice. Learning to drive? There's a free mock exam for the written test. Each tool shows how it works and the date we last checked it. The loan calculator is a planning tool, not a bank quotation, so confirm the final figures with your lender.
Which calculator do I need?
Pick the task that matches yours. Each one links to the tool, and every figure here is also on that tool's page.
- Comparing a bank loan offer. Enter the amount, the rate and the term in the loan EMI calculator. It uses the reducing-balance method and shows the monthly instalment, total interest and a month-by-month schedule. We don't quote bank rates, so use the rate your bank gives you.
- Reading a deed or survey plan. Land in Sri Lanka is measured in perches, roods and acres (A-R-P). The perch to square feet converter uses 1 perch = 272.25 sq ft and 160 perches = 1 acre.
- Checking your payslip. You pay 8% EPF from your salary. Your employer pays 12% EPF and 3% ETF on top. The EPF and ETF calculator shows all three for any monthly salary.
- Adding or removing VAT on an invoice. The standard rate is 18%. To take VAT out of a VAT-inclusive price, multiply by 18/118. The VAT calculator does both. Registering a new business first? See the business and company registration guide.
- Preparing for the DMT written test. Take the free driving license mock exam. Practise by topic, or try a timed 40-question run. The 40-question format is an estimate, because the DMT doesn't publish it. To read every question at once, open the driving license exam paper with answers.
- Renewing your license, not sitting the test. You don't need a calculator for that. Go to the driving license renewal guide.
