Bangladesch: was man vor der Reise wissen sollte

Das Wichtigste

  • Complete the arrival/departure registration required for foreign nationals; check the current electronic process.
  • Visa on arrival is discretionary; arrange a visa in advance where possible.
  • Flooding and cyclones can disrupt travel; Dhaka air quality is especially poor November-March.

Einreise und Visa

British citizens need a visa unless their passport has an applicable no-visa-required endorsement. A visa on arrival at Dhaka may be available but is discretionary and generally single-entry for 15-30 days. Carry return travel and proof of funds. Other nationalities should check a Bangladeshi mission. Foreign nationals must complete arrival/departure cards; an official e-arrival portal is available.
