Your biodata is the first conversation you have with a family you haven't met yet. It doesn't need fancy words. It needs to be clear, honest and complete enough for someone to feel they know you a little.

1. Start with a clear, recent photo

Choose a well-lit photo taken in the last year, facing the camera, with a plain background. Group photos and heavy filters make people hesitate. On Bolo Kobul your photos stay private until you accept a Kobul, so you can share a good one with confidence.

2. Get the basics exactly right

Age, height, education, occupation, home district and religion are what families check first. Make sure they match your documents. A small mistake, such as a height that doesn't match, can raise questions later.

3. Describe your work simply

Instead of only a job title, add one line about what you do and where. For example: "Senior Officer at a finance company in Khulna, working in client relations." It gives a real picture without sharing too much.

4. Introduce your family warmly

List parents and siblings with their occupations, and say a sentence about your family's values. Families are marrying families too, and this section is often read twice.

5. Write "About Me" in your own voice

Three or four sentences are enough: what matters to you, how you spend your free time, and what kind of home you hope to build. Avoid copying lines from the internet. People can tell, and your own words are always more convincing.

6. Say what you're looking for, kindly

Be honest about what matters most, such as values, education or location, but keep it short and respectful. A long list of demands can put good matches off.

7. Check it once more

Read it aloud or ask a sibling to read it. Fix spelling, remove repetition and make sure every section is filled in. On Bolo Kobul, your dashboard shows exactly which parts are still missing.
