A consular team from Romania is expected to arrive Dhaka on April 15.
They are likely to start providing visa services from April 17, according to Bangladesh Embassy in Romania.
Interested applicants have been advised to submit visa files to the designated desk at the BMET building in city’s Kakrail.
The Romanian Foreign Ministry is sending the Consular team to Dhaka for three months to issue about 5000 visas including 3400 pending visas.
“They need some local assistance. This is the first time that they are sending such kind of consular mission abroad,” Foreign Minister Dr AK Abdul Momen said on Monday.
Following the bilateral consultation held in October 2021 between the Ministers for Foreign Affairs of the two countries, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Romania approved opening of the temporary Consular office in Dhaka and sending a delegation for three months.
