Bangladesh–Fiji relations refer to the bilateral relations between Bangladesh and Fiji. Fiji recognized Bangladesh on January 31, 1972.[1] Diplomatic relations between the two countries were officially started in 2003.[2]

Cooperation in agriculture

Bangladesh and Fiji are considering signing an MoU on agricultural development through which Bangladesh will provide its agricultural technology to Fiji.[3]

Economic cooperation

Both Bangladesh and Fiji have shown deep interest in expanding the bilateral economic activities between the two countries. Because of the efficient business registration procedures in Fiji Bangladeshi investors have shown their interest to invest in Fiji.[4] The textiles industries has been identified as a potential sector for Bangladeshi businessmen to invest in Fiji.[5] Other potential sectors include medical, information and communication technology.[6]
