Nicaragua visa for Bangladeshis

News reports on Nicaragua's Disposicion 002-2026 (effective 16 February 2026) say Bangladesh is in Category C, the 'consulted visa' that needs authorization from immigration authorities in Managua before departure. The decree page on the Nicaraguan government site (mint.gob.ni) refused our request on 4 November 2026, so we could not read the list ourselves, and the sources do not name an embassy, consulate or online portal for Bangladeshis. Treat the requirement as partly verified and everything else as unconfirmed. Last checked 4 November 2026.

Quick answer: Visa needed?: Yes, according to news reports of Disposicion 002-2026 that place Bangladesh in Category C (consulted visa). We could not open the decree itself.. Where to apply: Not confirmed. No Nicaraguan embassy in Dhaka was verified. Third-party sites mention an honorary consulate in New Delhi; this is unconfirmed. Authorization is issued by immigration authorities in Managua.. Confirm before you pay.

What the new rules say

Official source checked
  • In February 2026 Nicaragua changed its entry categories for 128 countries. Reports say Category C visas now apply to many countries in Asia, Africa and America, including some that were previously allowed in with a different arrangement. Bangladesh is reported as Category C without any passport-type qualifier.
  • Older guides and visa-on-arrival information published before February 2026 may be out of date.

Total cost

Confirm with our office
  • No official fee was found. Travel Counsellor Ltd. service charges, if any, are quoted separately in BDT by our office once the government fee is confirmed. Checked 4 November 2026.

Transit and connecting visas

Official source checked
  • There are no direct flights from Dhaka. Your route will pass through other countries (often the US, Mexico, Panama or Central America) that may need their own visas. Check each separately.
