Do I have to travel to India to apply?

For most of the destinations below, no — they have a mission in Bangladesh. Where they do not, the accredited post is named in that destination's entry, and it is often in New Delhi. Check the entry before booking anything.

Which routes need no employer sponsor?

Those are counted below and listed on each destination's page. A route needing no sponsor is not the same as a route with no requirements — most still ask for a qualification, funds, or a language level.

Does this page tell me whether I am eligible?

No. It tells you where you can file. Eligibility depends on your qualification, experience, funds and language, and that is what the profile in the app scores. This page is the step before that one.

Moving abroad from Bangladesh: visa routes and where to apply

Which of the destinations we track keep a mission you can reach from Bangladesh, what each one says, and how many routes sit behind it.

Dhaka is a well-served capital for visa purposes: almost every destination we track keeps a resident mission in Bangladesh or accredits one nearby, and the handful that do not are small states with thin diplomatic networks rather than major destinations. The practical constraint from Bangladesh is usually appointment capacity, not the absence of a post.

62
destinations you can file for: 8
need a journey: 423
routes at reachable destinations: 24
of those need no employer

How these reach verdicts are sourced

Every entry on this page carries the page it came from and the month it was recorded. Where that source is not the destination's own missions directory, the entry says so and is marked unverified — we are re-sourcing them against official pages, and a verdict changes badge automatically once its destination is done.

This page is about where you apply from, not what passport you hold

The research behind it records whether someone applying from Bangladesh can reach a mission of each destination. That is a fact about where you are, not about your nationality. The two usually coincide and sometimes do not — and where a route restricts by nationality in its own published rules, that restriction is on the route, not here. Of the routes we track, only two record one at all.

Questions people applying from Bangladesh ask

Do I have to travel to India to apply?: For most of the destinations below, no — they have a mission in Bangladesh. Where they do not, the accredited post is named in that destination's entry, and it is often in New Delhi. Check the entry before booking anything.
Which routes need no employer sponsor?: Those are counted below and listed on each destination's page. A route needing no sponsor is not the same as a route with no requirements — most still ask for a qualification, funds, or a language level.
Does this page tell me whether I am eligible?: No. It tells you where you can file. Eligibility depends on your qualification, experience, funds and language, and that is what the profile in the app scores. This page is the step before that one.

Which of these are actually open to you?

This page says where you can apply. Which routes you match — against your qualifications, your funds and your language — is what an account works out, across every route we track rather than one country at a time.
