Talking with an immigration agent
入国審査にてその国で泊まる予定のホテルについて係員に説明するところです。

Where will you be staying while you're here?

I have a reservation for a hotel in Colombo. I booked it on the internet.

自然な表現

I have a reservation for a hotel in Colombo. I booked it on the internet yesterday.

1. Your sentences were correct. I gave you an additional word to make the sentence more precise and concise.
Thank you for that information. What is the purpose of your visit to this country? I'm sorry for asking all these questions, sir, but we have to be careful these days.

No, problem. I know your jobs are essential to keep this country safe. I am coming to this country to attend a meeting. Our company is a member of the supply chain association, and it is holding an annual conference here tomorrow. This is the purpose of my trip.

1. The word "that" suits the sentence much better than the word "this."
 Thank you for understanding me. For how long do you intend to stay? Is this your first time visiting this country?

Yes, this is the first visit. By the way, how can I count the days of my stay? I have a plan to leave here on July 23rd. Today is July 16rd, right? Should I include today when I count the days of my stay?

1. Your sentences were completely correct. I will offer you an alternative word. You can also use the verb "calculate."
Well, you don't neccesarily have to count the day of your arrival when you count the days of your stay.
Tell me, who will be financing your stay whilst you are here? Is it your company?

Thank you for giving good information. In this case, I stay here for six days, don't I?
And, Yes, My company give me some money for this trip beforehand. I don't have slips for the transfer or anything like such proof right now. It also gives me fifteen thousand yen a day, including accommodation here.

Yes, my company give me some money for this trip beforehand. I don't have slips for the transfer or anything like such proof right now. It also gives me fifteen thousand yen a day, including accommodation here.

1. The conjunction "and" is not needed at the beginning of the sentence, so we removed it.
2. The pronoun "my" doesn't need to be capitalized.
I see. Do you know how much money you are bringing into the country today? Are you travelling alone or with some other people?

I have just thirty thousand yen with me, and I'll withdraw the currency from an automatic teller machine at the airport with my credit card. You know, I'm alone.
