The local currency is the Bangladeshi taka. Carry small amounts of local cash for markets, snacks, tips, and purchases in villages or remote areas, where cards or digital payments may not always be available. Keep money secure and confirm current payment arrangements for your own bookings before departure.
Mobile and internet coverage can become limited in forests, wetlands, islands, and other remote areas. Do not depend on continuous service for navigation or urgent communication. A charged power bank and universal travel adapter are useful on long journeys and overnight boat trips.
