full_text_status: public
abstract: Adjustment into a new culture is of crucial importance for the immigrants to lead a meaningful life in that culture. The present study examines the adjustment experiences of Bangladeshi immigrants in the Netherlands in terms of three broad concepts such as socio-cultural, psychological, and economic adjustment. A qualitative research approach is adopted to get insights from the study participants. Findings show that Bangladeshi immigrants maintain socio-cultural relationship with the people sufficient to lead normal daily lives as they do hardly face any problem. Despite some problems of cultural differences, psychologically they are happy with their well-being, as almost all of their expectations have been fulfilled. They are economically adjusted because of the fulfilment of their economic expectations. However, their interaction with Dutch is limited. Therefore, it can be said that attention is needed to integrate immigrants with the mainstream of the Dutch society.
