What will I need before I travel?
Before you travel, it is imperative, that a Bangladesh visa is acquired from the Bangladeshi High Commission in your country. IUBAT will provide you with all the supporting document required for issuing a volunteer visa for the required period. You should initiate the process of documentation with IUBAT two months prior to your planned time of arrival. For the UK, it would be necessary to get the visa from the High Commission in London. The link below is for the Bangladesh High Commission, and should provide all of the necessary information.
At least 6 weeks before you travel, you must visit your local GP, or practice nurse for up-to-date information on vaccinations required before arrival.
You will be expected to dress professionally whilst teaching at IUBAT, for this, a collared shirt and smart trousers must be worn with tie.
Travel/ Medical insurance will also be required for your stay.
