Dhaka: Bangladesh's missions overseas are currently experiencing temporary disruptions in visa-related services due to a technical glitch impacting the central system of the Department of Immigration and Passports (DIP). The issue has affected the Machine Readable Visa (MRV) server, leading to delays in processing No Visa Required (NVR) applications, regular visa applications, and visa issuance.
The disruption has caused difficulties for applicants, including delayed responses and unanswered inquiries about their application status. The Bangladesh government has acknowledged the problem and is working to resolve the technical issue as soon as possible. Applicants are advised to allow additional time for processing and avoid making repeated inquiries.
The Bangladesh Embassy in Bangkok and Berlin have issued notices informing applicants of the technical problem and apologizing for any inconvenience caused. It is expected that normal visa services will resume once the central system is restored, though the specific timeline for restoration has not been announced.
