Bangladeshis in the Middle East (Bengali: মধ্যপ্রাচ্যে বাংলাদেশি, romanized: Madhyaprācyē Bānlādēśi; Arabic: البنغلاديشيون في الشرق الأوسط, romanized: al-Banġlādīšīyūna fī al-Šarq al-ʾĀūsaṭ), form the largest part of the worldwide Bangladeshi diaspora. Although Bangladesh only came into existence in 1971, the land of East Bengal which is today Bangladesh has strong ties to the Middle East. Out of the 13 Million[1] Bangladeshis abroad approximately 8 million live within the Middle East,[2] with 2.5 million in Saudi Arabia and a 1 million of them in the United Arab Emirates. Bangladeshis who come to the Middle East are primarily guest workers or day labourers. Bangladesh is one of the largest labour suppliers to Saudi Arabia. In 2007, Bangladeshi workers obtained the biggest share, with 23.50 per cent of the 1.5 million Saudi Arabia visas issued.
