7 Reasons to participate in the 9th International Health Tourism & Services Expo 2026
Bangladesh has firmly established itself as a major exporter of medical tourism products and services, with demand soaring both at home and abroad. Leveraging world‑class healthcare facilities, skilled professionals, and cost‑effective treatment packages, the country has become a trusted destination for advanced medical care and wellness solutions.
Nearly 700,000 Bangladeshis travel abroad for medical care each year, spending an estimated USD 3.5 billion. This massive outflow underscores both the rising demand for advanced healthcare and the untapped potential of Bangladesh’s own medical tourism industry. With strategic investment, Bangladesh can capture a significant share of this spending, transforming outbound costs into domestic growth and positioning itself as a competitive hub for global medical tourism.
3. According to India’s Ministry of Tourism, Bangladesh has consistently ranked among the top sources of foreign tourist arrivals in India, often holding the No. 1 or No. 2 position in recent years. In 2024, Bangladesh accounted for around 17.57% of all foreign visitors, making it India’s second‑largest source market after the United States.
Bangladesh’s health tourism sector is being shaped by a powerful synergy between the public and private sectors. Strong government backing—through policies, infrastructure investment, and international promotion—combined with dynamic private sector initiatives in hospitals, clinics, and wellness services, is driving rapid growth. Together, these efforts are positioning Bangladesh as an emerging health tourism destination.
