The following persons have served as British High Commissioner to Sri Lanka , previously known as Ceylon . Countries belonging to the
Commonwealth of Nations typically exchange
High Commissioners rather than
Ambassadors . Though there are a few technical differences, they are in practice one and the same office. Since 1965 when the
Maldives were granted independence from the
United Kingdom , the British High Commissioner to Sri Lanka has doubled as the (non-resident) British High Commissioner to the Maldives (from 1982 to 2016, and since 1 February 2020) and as the British Ambassador to the Maldives (1965 to 1982, and October 2016 to 2020).
