Bangladeshi visa and Work permit process.
————————————————————-
Before you can apply or be issued with a work permit you must have a non-immigrant visa first. This is required to apply for a work permit. Ideally, it should be acquired prior to your arrival in Bangladesh. We can assist you in obtaining it in your home country or in country close to Bangladesh. In addition, we can help you convert a tourist visa to a non-immigrant visa without leaving Bangladesh but it can take up to 1 or 2 months for this conversion process.
Obtaining a work permit in Bangladesh :

Obtaining a work permit in Bangladesh is perhaps the most convenient and most rewarding way for the enchanted visitor to enjoy the country’s many promising attractions while immersing into the exotic and opulent Bangla culture without worrying much about a visa or time. A work permit allows you to work and operate business in Thailand as a skilled professional or even as an employer. The work permit is required in order to be able to work legally in Bangladesh. Working without a Bangladeshi work permit might cause severe consequences.
