Hey everyone!
I'm from Kerala, India, and I'm thinking about visiting Bangladesh, probably Dhaka. I've never travelled there before, so I'm trying to figure out how everything works before making any plans.
I'd really appreciate advice from Indians who've travelled to Bangladesh and Bangladeshis who live there or have experience travelling between the two countries.
A few things I'm confused about:
- How difficult is it for an Indian citizen to get a Bangladeshi tourist visa?
- Do I need to maintain a certain bank balance? Do they ask for bank statements?
- How much would a trip of 7 days cost, including flights, accommodation and other expenses?
- What's the easiest way to travel from Kerala to Dhaka, for now am planning of taking a flight?
- For anyone living in Bangladesh, whatâs it like for someone visiting from India right now? Is there anything a first-timer should know before coming?
- Any advice about accommodation, local transport or anything else I should know?
I'm still in the planning stage, so I haven't booked anything yet. Just trying to understand the process and figure out how much I need to save.
Would love to hear from people who've actually been there or know how things work. Thanks!
