Bangladesh passport fees
Currently, regular passports and Machine Readable Passports (MRPs) are no longer being issued in Bangladesh. Instead, all Bangladeshi citizens seeking to obtain a new passport or renew an expired one will be issued an e-passport.
However, Bangladeshi expatriates have the option to apply for the re-issuance of their current MRP or apply for a new e-passport if they do not possess an MRP. For more information on obtaining or renewing passports, please contact the nearest Bangladeshi Embassy or consulate.
