List of ambassadors of Spain to Bangladesh

The ambassador of Spain to Bangladesh is the official representative of the Kingdom of Spain to the People's Republic of Bangladesh.

Following the proclamation of Bangladeshi Independence, Spain recognized the new state and established diplomatic relations with it, although the ambassador resided in New Delhi, India. In October 2005, the Council of Ministers approved the Plan Asia 2005–2008 which provided for the creation of an embassy in the Bangladeshi capital and designated the Asian country as a "preferred country" for Spanish Cooperation. In compliance with these objectives, in October 2007 the Spanish government created a resident embassy in Dhaka, which was opened the following year.
