The Bangladesh cricket team toured New Zealand between 19 December 2007 and 16 January 2008 to play three one day internationals (ODIs) and two Test matches. This was the second Bangladeshi tour to New Zealand (the first being their 2001–02 tour) and the third series between the countries following New Zealand's 2004–05 tour to Bangladesh. The teams also met in pool play during the 2003 Cricket World Cup and at the Super 8 stage of the 2007 Cricket World Cup.

New Zealand whitewashed both the ODI and Test series, leaving the Bangladeshis still searching for their first win against New Zealand in an official match. They did beat New Zealand in a warm-up match for the 2007 World Cup; however this was not recognised as an official match. Similarly, Bangladesh beat a New Zealand XI on this tour but, as this was not an official New Zealand team, it didn't count as an official match either.

At the start of the series, the New Zealand were ranked third in the ICC ODI Championship and seventh in the ICC Test Championship. Prior to this series the New Zealand team had toured South Africa – losing the test series 2–0 and the ODI series 2–1 – and Australia, where they lost the Chappell-Hadlee Trophy series 2–0.
