How to Apply for Bangladesh Visa in Pakistan?
Bangladesh’s presence in Pakistan is very strong and they have an embassy in Islamabad as well as a consulate in Karachi that can process and issue visas. Bangladesh is one of the important countries of the SAARC in South Asia. It was part of Pakistan before 1971 and now it’s a separate country with its own immigration policy. Pakistani passport holders need a visa to visit Bangladesh. These days, the visa is not easy to obtain because the Bangladesh government has a strict visa policy for Pakistani citizens.
Types of Visa Bangladesh offers:
- Tourist Visa
- Business Visa
- Work Visa
- Investor Visa
- Tabligh Visa
- Student Visa
How to Apply for Bangladesh Visa in Pakistan?
The Bangladeshi visa is to be applied in Pakistan either through the high commission of Bangladesh in Islamabad or the deputy high commission in Karachi. They don’t have any appointment system and you can directly go to the embassy or consulate in order to submit your visa application by hand. You can fill out the visa application form online or can get a hard copy of the visa application and fill it out on the spot.

Visa Cost of Bangladesh
The official visa fee for a Bangladesh visa in Pakistan is Rs.600 for a single entry visa and Rs.1200 for a multiple entry visa to Bangladesh. However, this price is for a tourism visa to Bangladesh. The price is the same in Karachi and Islamabad.
Visa Processing Duration
The normal processing time for a Bangladesh visa in Pakistan is just 3 working days but nowadays they take a lot of time to process the visa application because of the verification from Bangladesh. If you have a strong connection in Bangladesh then visa will be processed faster and you will get a reply quickly. They don’t keep your passport during the process.
Conclusion
The Bangladeshi embassy has recently started issuing visas to Pakistani again. If you have an invitation letter from Bangladesh then you will likely get a visa and you will get it quick. However, if you don’t have an invitation letter then you can attach a Hotel booking and Flight reservation to maximize your chances for a Bangladesh visa in Pakistan.
Don’t be afraid of rejection because this is very common on Pakistani passports. However, the Bangladeshi government now wants to improve the tourism sector in Bangladesh and they would want Pakistanis to visit Bangladesh for tourism and investment purposes. Therefore, I would recommend you apply for a business or tourist visa to Bangladesh.
