Bangladesh–the Gambia relations refer to the bilateral relations between Bangladesh and the Gambia.

The Gambia has sought Bangladesh's assistance in improving its agricultural sector to achieve self-sufficiency in food. The Gambia has also asked for technical cooperation in developing its health sector and expressed interest to recruit skilled doctors and nurses from Bangladesh. Bangladesh has assured the Gambia to cooperate in these fields. Both Bangladesh and the Gambia agreed to formulate the legal framework for collaboration in sectors such as pharmaceuticals, agriculture (particularly rice and cotton), education, and women empowerment.
