TL;DR
The discussion indicates that a Sri Lanka ETA is valid for 30 days from entry, so a 35-day stay requires confirming an extension option or arranging a new entry period. It notes that leaving on day 30 and returning on day 31 would mean a new 30-day ETA.
One option mentioned is to leave Sri Lanka on day 30 and fly back on day 31; this would involve a new ETA with a fresh 30-day period.
The ETA period is described as 30 days counted from the date of entry into Sri Lanka. Travelers planning 35 days should account for this limit in advance.
For a 35-day trip, the discussion raises the need for an extension because the stated standard stay period is 30 days.
