In a significant move, the interim government of Bangladesh has eased visa policy restrictions for Pakistani citizens, reflecting the improving bilateral relations between the two nations.
Since the ouster of pro-Indian Bangladesh Prime Minister Hasina Wajid, the interim government of Bangladesh led by Nobel laureate Muhammad Yunus is actively seeking to strengthen ties with Pakistan.
The Bangladesh government has removed the requirement to obtain security clearance for Pakistani citizens, paving the way for easier travel between the two countries.
The Security Services Division (SSD) of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Bangladesh has issued orders to facilitate the visa process for Pakistan nationals.
In a related development, the foreign ministry also instructed all missions abroad to simplify the visa application process for Pakistani citizens.
