Why is Bangladesh not available as a Country/Region option for Apple services?

I’m an Apple user living in Bangladesh, and I’m currently facing an issue where Bangladesh is simply not available in the Country/Region selection. This means I cannot properly complete the process using my actual country of residence.


I understand that regional availability can depend on technical, regulatory, or business considerations. However, I’m not looking for a generic explanation. I’m hoping Apple can actually investigate this issue and provide a way for customers in Bangladesh to use their correct country/region.


I use genuine Apple products, including iPhones and MacBooks, purchased through legitimate channels in Bangladesh. There is also a large and growing community of Apple users here.


Has anyone else in Bangladesh experienced this? More importantly, has anyone found a legitimate solution or had this successfully escalated to Apple?


I would really appreciate any guidance, and I hope Apple can look into supporting Bangladesh properly in this context.

This is a user to user only forum. We aren't Apple, nor can we speak for Apple. We can guess however and we do know that Apple does NOT do business in Bangladesh, which would likely be why Bangladesh isn't an option for you to choose.


You are welcome to provide feedback to Apple via this link --> Product Feedback - Apple


You are also welcome to do a Google Search where I was able to see some of the primary reasons Apple doesn't operate in nor support Bangladesh.

While we can certainly commiserate with your dilemma, we here are fellow Apple users; not “Official” Apple representatives.


We i fortunately have no insight or details as to how Apple determines where to do business; beyond the generic items you’ve already mentioned.
