India and Bangladesh have taken steps to fully resume visa services between the two countries after about one and a half years of strained relations. According to a report by The Indian Express on May 2, Bangladesh has reopened visa issuance for all categories of Indian citizens, while India plans to gradually restart its own visa operations within the next few weeks. The move follows recent diplomatic discussions aimed at normalizing bilateral relations.
The report notes that Bangladesh’s Foreign Minister Khalilur Rahman emphasized restoring normal visa procedures during his recent visit to India. All Bangladeshi visa centers in India are now operational, and Dhaka has urged New Delhi to reciprocate promptly. Bangladesh’s High Commissioner Riaz Hamidullah said that although some centers were suspended last December, operations resumed in February. Since then, over 13,000 visas have been issued to Indian nationals across business, tourism, medical, and family visit categories.
The report adds that Bangladesh remains a major source of foreign tourists to India, though visitor numbers declined in 2024 amid political changes in Dhaka. The renewed visa cooperation signals an effort by both governments to stabilize bilateral ties.
