Dominican Republic visa for Bangladeshis

We found no official Dominican Republic page that names Bangladesh. Third-party sites say Bangladeshi passport holders need a visa before travel, and we could not find a Dominican embassy in Dhaka. The Dominican Embassy in New Delhi and its VFS Global visa centres in India publish fees and a minimum processing time for visa applications made in India, but eligibility for Bangladeshi applicants is not stated, so key facts are marked for confirmation.
