The Bangladesh government has withdrawn its decision to temporarily suspend the issuance of on-arrival visas introduced in connection with the upcoming parliamentary elections.
In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said the earlier measure, which advised travellers to obtain visas in advance, has been reversed. As a result, Maldivian nationals travelling to Bangladesh will continue to be eligible for on-arrival visas.
