Protocol for going to the camps

Visitors to Cox’s Bazar need to be aware that there are checkpoints stationed by local law enforcement officers prior to entering the camps. The purpose of these checkpoints is twofold: to ensure that visitors to the camp are accounted for, and to preserve the dignity of camp inhabitants from potential “disaster tourists”.

When you are approached by camp officials it’s important to remember – do not be alarmed. These are routine checks put in place to ensure the protection of all camp inhabitants and the people working there on a daily basis. You will be requested to provide your identification documentation in addition to your  Rohingya camps Access Pass, so please do so calmly and comply with all instructions reasonably given to you.
