The Ministry of Home Affairs in Bangladesh has issued a directive setting a deadline of January 31, 2025, for undocumented foreign nationals to legalize their status. The ministry has warned that legal action will be taken against both the undocumented individuals and the institutions that employ or harbor them if they fail to comply by the specified date. This announcement was made through an official notice released on Thursday, targeting foreign nationals who are currently living and working in Bangladesh without the necessary legal permits. The Home Ministry has urged these individuals to obtain the required documentation to regularize their stay and has called on relevant departments and institutions to assist in ensuring compliance with the deadline.
