Cyprus Visa for Bangladeshi Citizens
Cyprus is a growing destination for Bangladeshi work-visa applicants in hospitality, construction, and domestic services. Important note: Cyprus is an EU member but NOT yet a Schengen state — a Cyprus visa does not allow travel to other EU Schengen countries.
Every Cyprus visa application requires a flight itinerary. EchoFlights provides Dhaka to Larnaca dummy tickets for 100 Taka via bKash.
