Abstract: Abstract The tourism industry has a multidimensional capacity in contributing to the development process of any country like Bangladesh by creating jobs and income opportunities, reducing poverty for underserved communities, and leading to socio-economic development. However, due to the prevailing social and institutional barriers, Bangladesh’s tourism industry is still at the take-off stage. A better insight into the tourism industry’s existing barriers is considered a pre-requisite to promote sustainable development policies worldwide. Therefore, this chapter discusses the barriers associated with the Bangladesh tourism industry and discusses the way forward for future policy formulations.
