    u.s. dell? the simple answer is no. its due to tax and export issues. They are pretty clear about that. the best shot is to use package forwarding companies

    nothing. the basic 1 year one includes it. All u have to do is, when u get the laptop, fill out the ownership transfer form and then u can use the warranty in Srilanka

    Warning when shipping out to another country, you may pay a large sum of money for customs/VAT so be wary.
