Investors can set up a business in Bangladesh by following these steps:
Select a Business Structure
Choose business branches that suit your goals: joint venture, branch office, or subsidiary.
Gain Investment Consent
Ensure that consent is obtained from the Bangladesh Investment Development Authority (BIDA) or the appropriate government body. In 2022, BIDA sanctioned more than $3 billion in FDI (Foreign Direct Investment).
Register with RJSC
Apply for registration with the RJSC Registrar of Joint Stock Companies and Firms. Registering as a company also has legal requirements within the jurisdiction.
Open a Bank Account
Fulfill capital requirements relevant to the company’s registration by opening a bank account in a local bank and placing the necessary funds.
Follow Tax Regulations and Labor Legislation
Abide by the tax and labor law requirements that govern your business, such as having the relevant licensing and permits.
