Types of Bangladesh Passport


Types of Bangladesh Passport
There are three types of passports that a Bangladeshi citizen may hold.

Regular or Tourist passport (green cover)
This is the most common type of passport. Any citizen of Bangladesh may possess a "regular" or "tourist" passport for international travel. Children traveling under the age of 10 years do not require this passport and may travel under their mother's passport. The maximum validity period of a "tourist" or "regular" passport is 10 years.
Official passport (green cover with identifying blue stamp on the first page)
Government officials of Bangladesh are entitled to carry this type of passport. It provides the holders with visa free access to certain countries that usually don't allow visa free access to "regular" or "tourist" passport holders. The "official" passport is identified by a blue stamp on the first page that reads "Official". Citizens holding an "official" passport are subject to restrictions when leaving Bangladesh. In most cases, they have to provide a valid reason for leaving Bangladesh, such as a business trip, or medical treatment. "Official" passport holders are not usually allowed to leave for vacations or pleasure-seeking trips. Like the "regular" or "tourist" passport, the "official" passport also has a green cover.
Diplomatic passport (red cover)
This type of passport can only be held by Bangladeshi citizens who are members or staff of the diplomatic community. This passport provides visa free access to more countries than the "official" passport. "Diplomatic" passports can be distinctly identified by their red cover which sets them apart from the green-colored "tourist", "regular" or "official" passports.
[edit] Visa Free and Visa-on-arrival Travel
The following countries offer visa-free or visa-on-arrival services for Bangladesh passport holders.

  3. I can't believe how fast and efficient Fast Passport was in processing my application. I had to renew my passport for an upcoming vacation, and they had it ready in no time. Their user-friendly website and clear instructions made the process a breeze. I am delighted with their service and will certainly use them again.
