Bangladesh

Foreign travelers arriving in or departing from Bangladesh by air can now complete their arrival and departure cards online. Known as the E-Arrival Card and E-Departure Card, these new digital formalities allow passengers to submit in advance information that was previously provided during immigration procedures.

Bangladesh is moving toward a new visa policy designed to replace the framework in place since 2006. A ministerial committee has been tasked with refining the draft “Visa Policy 2026,” which includes a reorganization of visa categories and a possible shift toward an e-Visa system.
