Good to know
- A sponsor in Bangladesh is required — a Bangladeshi citizen who is inviting or hosting you. A copy of their Bangladesh national ID goes in with your application.
- Applications are submitted at Foshwa Global in Karama, Dubai — the service centre for the Consulate General of Bangladesh. Submission is by appointment only.
- The Dubai centre serves residents of Dubai and the Northern Emirates. Abu Dhabi residents apply through the Embassy of Bangladesh in Abu Dhabi.
- The visa’s validity starts on the date it is issued, not on your travel date, so time your application to your trip.
- Processing time can vary from one applicant to another. Avoid buying non-refundable flight tickets until your visa is issued.
- UAE nationals are eligible for a visa on arrival in Bangladesh.
