The Bangladesh Romanians (Bengali: রোমানীয় বাংলাদেশী) are a migrant community of Bangladeshis who reside in Romania, and the term can also include their locally born descendants.
History
[edit]Bangladeshis come to Romania mostly as skilled workers. Their exact number is unknown. As of 2008, there were hundreds of Bangladeshis living in Romania. [1] However, due to the fact that Romania's workforce has decreased due to emigration, their numbers have increased since then and they are expected to increase in the future.[2]
