Bangladesh Visa on Arrival
It is possible to get a Bangladesh visa on arrival.
The process is simple and quick.
You will get off the aeroplane, then as you walk down the escalators you will come across a corner with a few windows with a sign saying "visa on arrival". There may be nobody here, and you may have to wait around for staff members to arrive, or for staff members to start doing something.
First, you should fill in the visa on arrival form.
Then you should go to the Bangladesh visa on arrival payment desk.
You then pay and get a receipt, then turn to the visa application and collection desk.
There are not that many windows and staff, but there is also not likely to be that many tourists, and even less attempting to get the visa on arrival.
Once you've filled in the application and paid, you will get your Bangladesh visa on arrival stamp.
Bangladesh Visa Requirements:
- Passports must be valid for six months beyond your planned stay in Bangladesh.

How to Apply for a Bangladesh Visa

For this, you will need to provide visa documents and passport scans, and it may be more expensive than getting the Bangladesh visa on arrival if you are eligible.
There have been reports of a few people having issues. If you can get a visa before departure without much hassle, this is recommended.
