E-passport was introduced in Bangladesh on January 22, 2020. Today we will learn the details about e-passport Bangladesh and e-passport fees, bank lists, and how to apply online in Bangladesh. Again, for those who have a passport but have lost it, if they apply for a passport, they will need to attach a GD copy.
Online Passport Application From Bangladesh
The documents we need to read after applying for an e-passport are a 3-page form that needs to be filled out online, and with that, we will need a bank draft of your payment.
Then you will need a photocopy of your National Identity Card or your smart card. If you do not have a National Identity Card, photocopy your Birth Registration. But there is a condition that you can give birth registration only if you are under 18 years of age; then, you have to provide a photocopy of the national identity card of your parents.
If you already have an MRP passport, you must attach a photocopy. Then you have to attach your marriage certificate. Then you must attach NOC because if you are in government service but are not eligible to get an official passport, you must take NOC from your government. Then you will need a government order or GO.
Those going abroad for government service will have to take this government order from the government. If a person has retired from government service, he should attach a photocopy of his retirement or pension documents.
If you are applying for an urgent passport, you will get the passport within 2 days, but in that case, if you do not have the passport before, you need to attach the pre-police verification documents.
