Can anyone tell me if this is a bedbug?

Hi,

100% not bedbug.

Not native to my part of the world though, Ia m sure an entologist will give an opinion shortly.

What a funny little pin-head!

Sorry, I don't know what that is, but as David said, it's not a bed bug.

Could be a black carpet beetle or a relative. Does look like a species close to it.
