Getting from Dhaka airport to the city center

Dhaka is served by Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport (DAC), located approximately 20 km north of the city center. This major gateway handles both domestic and international flights for Bangladesh's capital. Airport transfers to city center destinations include taxis, ride-hailing services, CNG auto-rickshaws, and public buses. Journey times vary significantly depending on Dhaka's notorious traffic conditions, particularly during peak hours when travel can take considerably longer than off-peak periods.

Notes:

  • Prices in BDT (approximately 110 BDT = 1 USD); table created in 2025 and subject to change.
  • Dhaka traffic is extremely congested, especially during morning (8-10 AM) and evening (5-9 PM) rush hours. Journey times can double or triple during peak periods.
  • CNG auto-rickshaws require fare negotiation; agree on price before starting your journey.
  • Ride-hailing apps require local SIM card or international roaming for pickup coordination.
  • We recommend checking official transport websites for your travel planning.
