Frequently Asked Questions

What factors affect IR5 visa approval at Dhaka Consulate?
Factors include the completeness of your application, supporting documents, interview performance, and the consulate's workload. Common refusal reasons include missing documents, insufficient ties to your home country, or unclear travel purpose.
How can I improve my chances of getting a IR5 visa at Dhaka Consulate?

Where does this consulate's visa approval data come from?
All data is sourced from the U.S. Department of State and official consulate reports. Statistics are updated regularly to reflect the latest available information.

Data Source & Transparency

Data Source: All visa approval statistics are compiled from the official U.S. Department of State’s annual visa statistics reports. For the most accurate and up-to-date information, visit the U.S. Department of State Visa Statistics.

Methodology: These are counts of visas issued, taken from the State Department’s monthly issuance tables. No approval rate is shown because refusals are not published per country or per post, and a rate cannot be calculated without them. Figures exclude cases under administrative processing and are subject to reporting delays.

Disclaimer: This website is not affiliated with the U.S. government. All data is provided for informational purposes only. For official guidance, always refer to the U.S. Department of State or your local U.S. embassy/consulate.
