๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ฉ Does a Bangladeshi need a visa for Ivory Coast ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฎ?

e-Visa

Yes, online (e-Visa). Bangladeshi passport holders need a visa for Ivory Coast, and it can be applied for online as an e-Visa before travelling.

Rule updated from Wikipedia's โ€œVisa requirements for Bangladeshi citizensโ€ (checked 2026-10-04); the older passport-index dataset (January 2025) listed ETA required. Entry rules change: confirm with the embassy of Ivory Coast or its official government website before you travel.

What this means for your trip

An e-Visa is applied for on the destination's official government website. You upload your passport scan and photo, pay online and receive an approval letter by email.

Apply well before departure and print the approval; use only the official portal, as many look-alike sites charge extra.

Your passport should normally be valid for at least six months beyond your planned departure date and have blank pages for stamps; many countries apply this rule.
