A Business Visa allows Bangladeshi nationals to travel abroad for short-term business purposes such as meetings, conferences, negotiations, and market visits. It does not permit paid employment in the destination country. Visa Center Bangladesh handles invitation letter coordination, documentation, and the full application process.

Business owners, executives, and professionals travelling abroad for meetings, trade fairs, contract negotiations, factory visits, or short-term business development activities.
