The Bangladesh President's Gold Cup () was an international football tournament held annually from 1981 to 1993 in Dhaka, Bangladesh. It succeeded the Aga Khan Gold Cup, which was held in a similar format. According to historian Kausik Bandyopadhyay, the cup was intended to attract national or similarly high performance teams from abroad, but participants "fell far short of such expectations".
