Relationship context
Overview
Bangladesh follows a one-China policy and recognizes the People’s Republic of China rather than Taiwan. This indicates a clear constraint on official Bangladesh–Taiwan relations, but the scope of direct bilateral dealings and Taiwan’s government policy toward Bangladesh are unclear.
Major uncertainties
- The scope of direct economic or other unofficial Bangladesh–Taiwan arrangements is unclear.
- Details of Taiwan’s government engagement with Bangladesh are limited.
