Australia–Bangladesh relations refer to bilateral relations between Australia and Bangladesh.
Australia was the fourth country, and the first in the developed world, to recognise Bangladesh's independence in 1971.[1] A high commission was opened in Dhaka and relations have been warm since then.[1] In 2008, Bangladesh signed a bilateral counter-terrorism MOU with Australia, their first with any country.[1] The number of Bangladeshis in Australia has increased in recent years.[1] Bangladesh is a significant recipient of foreign aid from Australia.[1][2]
