Entry details
Holders of a Bangladesh passport need a visa obtained in advance when visiting Laos. The Bangladesh passport currently ranks #192 of 199 worldwide, with 36 destinations reachable visa-free or via visa on arrival / eTA.
Laos is notably open to foreign passports, admitting 170 of the world's 198 other passports without a prior visa; its own passport ranks #174 with 48 open destinations. Both sit in Asia, where regional agreements often shape entry rules. Access is actually lopsided the other way — Laos citizens enter Bangladesh more easily (visa on arrival).
In the opposite direction, Laos citizens travelling to Bangladesh face: visa on arrival.
