The Government of Sri Lanka has declared the concept
of e-Governance for providing services to the people of Sri Lanka using Information
and Communication Technology. Keeping in line with this concept, the National
Water Supply & Drainage Board has established a computerized system for
Online Payment of Water Bills.
Consumers can now visit the Web Site of the NWSDB www.waterboard.lk and make payment of their
Water Bills using Credit Cards. This system has been established by the NWSDB
for the convenience of its consumers in paying Water Bills.
Consumers are kindly requested
to visit the NWSDB Web Site www.waterboard.lk
to make payment of Water Bills using this facility. When you visit the site
you can see a button indicating “Pay Online Your Water Bills” at your right
hand side. When you click on this button a form appears so that you can register
to make a payment. Consumers are kindly requested to use their National Identity
Card Number (NIC No.) for registration purpose. Once the consumer has registered
with this system, the NWSDB will check the accuracy of the data and confirm
the registration. The NIC No. should be used to make payments thereafter.
