Abstract: Abstract Travel for pleasure or business or other purpose is known as “tourism.” Tourism is one of the flourishing industries in Bangladesh. Undoubtedly, Bangladesh has unique tourism products and services and has greater potential to develop tourism industry as an important means for its socio-economic development. On the way to such development, the Government of Bangladesh (GoB), the Ministry of Civil Aviation (MoCAT), and Bangladesh Parjatan Corporation (BPC) can effectively play roles for formulating policies and enhancing the general development of the tourism industry. Firstly, this paper primarily emphasizes on the institutions’ functions of tourism legislation, visa and immigration policies and performances, and the application of technology in the context of Bangladesh. Secondly, this paper’s specific objectives regarding legislation, visa, and immigration include reviewing tourism management policies, analyzing the main areas of tourism policies, assessing the performance of tourism, and prescribing some recommendations. Thirdly, this paper analyzes statistical techniques from collected survey data from 37 foreigners to measure their satisfaction related to immigration, visa and legislation services, and technology application. Lastly, the chapter focuses on some important variables such as technology application, visa restrictions, visa availability, etc. and has done a regression analysis to link these factors with foreign tourist satisfaction. This paper offers both qualitative and quantitative analysis of legislation, visa, and immigration policies which comes forward with new ideas, insights, and options for further international collaboration.
