Medical Visa & Entry Information for Bangladesh Patients
- Attendants: Up to 3 attendants per patient on Medical Attendant (MED-X) visas — a bilateral provision more generous than most other countries.
- Where to apply: Indian Visa Application Centres (IVACs) in Dhaka, Chittagong, Rajshahi, Sylhet and Khulna.
- Good to know: The visa itself is free for Bangladeshi nationals; an IVAC processing fee applies. Typical processing is a few working days once your hospital documentation is complete.
Visa policy can change — always confirm current requirements with the relevant Indian mission before booking travel.
In short
India is one of the most established medical travel destinations for Bangladeshi patients, particularly for cardiac, oncology and transplant care. Renaid arranges the free opinion, hospital and doctor matching, medical visa guidance, travel and recovery — as a facilitator, never as a clinic. Clinical decisions rest with your treating doctors in India.
1. Why Bangladesh patients choose India
India is one of the most established medical travel destinations for Bangladeshi patients, particularly for cardiac, oncology and transplant care.
2. Medical visa & documents
Bangladeshi nationals typically apply for an Indian medical visa with a hospital confirmation letter; processing details can change, so confirm current requirements with the relevant Indian mission. Requirements can change, so we recommend confirming current medical visa requirements with the relevant Indian consulate or embassy serving Bangladesh for your specific circumstances.
3. Travel & arrival
Once your hospital and treatment dates are confirmed, we help coordinate flights to Ahmedabad / Kolkata / Chennai / Delhi NCR, airport pickup and accommodation suited to your treatment location and recovery needs.
4. Common treatments sought by Bangladesh patients
- Cardiac care
- Oncology
- Orthopedic surgery
- Liver & kidney transplant
5. Costs & what to expect
Treatment costs depend on your diagnosis, hospital, city and length of stay. We never promise a fixed saving or guaranteed price — after specialist review, the hospital provides a realistic estimate, explained clearly by your coordinator.
6. After you return to Bangladesh
Before you leave India, your specialist provides discharge summaries and follow-up instructions, which we can help share with your doctor at home. Where useful, we coordinate video follow-up consultations so distance doesn't interrupt your recovery.

What Renaid Can Coordinate for Bangladesh Patients
- Specialist review of your medical reports
- Hospital and doctor matching for your condition
- Medical visa guidance specific to your country
- Travel, accommodation and airport assistance
- Interpreter support, where needed
- Post-treatment follow-up coordination
Why Bangladesh Patients Choose a Facilitator
Coordinating hospital selection, medical visa requirements, travel and accommodation independently — from another country, often while managing a health condition — can be difficult. A single coordinator who understands both the destination and your starting point can reduce that burden, while all clinical decisions remain with your treating doctors in India.
Currency & Cost Planning
Treatment estimates from Indian hospitals are typically provided in Indian Rupees (INR) or US Dollars. If you're budgeting from Bangladeshi Taka (BDT), ask your coordinator to confirm costs in a currency you can compare against directly, and build in a buffer for exchange-rate movement between quote and payment.

- Passport valid for at least 6 months
- Existing medical reports, imaging and prescriptions
- Medical visa (or proof of nationality, where visa-free)
