More Bangladeshi nationals are set to return home from the Maldives in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.

They are scheduled on a chartered flight of Biman Bangladesh Airlines on May 15.

Changes in schedule will be notified on High Commission’s Facebook page, said a press release from Bangladesh High Commission in the Maldives on Sunday, reports UNB.

The High Commission issued a notice on its Facebook page on May 3 concerning the return of irregular/illegal Bangladeshi expatriates, who have been handed regularization cards by the Maldives government.

The commission has been regularly publishing lists of Bangladeshis initially selected for returning home.

The Maldives government will provide medical certificates to the enlisted expatriates. The place, date, and time of medical test will be informed on Facebook, said the release.
