At a glance

Bangladesh passport holders: Multiple entry for Zimbabwe. Fee: USD 30–55 (~USD 30–55). Processing: Average 7 working days per the current official eVisa FAQ; the portal advises applying at least 3 weeks before travel.. Indicative only — always verify with the official mission before applying.

Overview

Corrected classification: Zimbabwe's own eVisa portal FAQ (evisa.gov.zw, live) explicitly places Bangladesh in 'Category C' -- 'required to pay for and obtain a visa before travelling to Zimbabwe.' Visa-on-Arrival is NOT available to Bangladeshi citizens (the prior record incorrectly implied VoA availability). Bangladesh is also absent from the official Zambia/Zimbabwe joint KAZA UniVisa eligible-nationality list, so KAZA UniVisa does not apply either. eVisa must be obtained online in advance. Exact current fee amount could not be independently reconfirmed this session -- the official portal no longer publishes a public price list (cost is shown only after application).

Visa types: eVisa only for Bangladeshi passport holders (Category C -- must obtain before travel; single/double/multiple entry options exist within the eVisa system but VoA and KAZA UniVisa are NOT available to Bangladesh); Business Visa; Long-stay Visa; Work Permit; Student Visa; Transit; Diplomatic/Official.
