If you are looking for Apostille Services in Bangladesh for use of your documents abroad, getting the correct authentication process is important.

An Apostille is a certificate used to authenticate a public document for use in another country that is covered by the Hague Apostille Convention.
Bangladesh's accession to the 1961 Apostille Convention became effective on 30 March 2025. The Convention is designed to simplify the traditional legalization process by replacing multiple authentication steps with a single Apostille issued by the competent authority of the country where the document originates.
For Bangladesh, the designated competent authority is the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA).
