The information requested is not published.

The Government of Bangladesh does not currently permit refugees living in refugee camps in Cox’s Bazar to leave the camps either for the purpose of making a visa application or to leave Bangladesh to travel to a third country.

The Government has raised this issue of exit permits with the Government of Bangladesh, but the Government of Bangladesh position remains unchanged.
