Expatriate Bangladeshis sent US$2.56 billion in remittances in October 2025, marking an increase of 7% compared to the same month last year.

In October 2024, the country received $2.39 billion in remittances from wage earners abroad.

Industry insiders have noted a consistent upward trend in remittance inflows since December 2024, driven by several key factors. These include a narrowing gap between official and informal exchange rates, crackdowns on money laundering, and a renewed sense of patriotism among expatriates, particularly following the political changes in Bangladesh last year.
