Registering a business in Bangladesh becomes much easier when you know what needs to be done first. The exact process depends on whether you are starting as a sole proprietorship, partnership or private limited company.
Choose your business structure
Decide whether you want to operate as a sole proprietorship, partnership or registered company based on your ownership and future plans.
Prepare your business information
Finalise your business name, address, ownership details and keep the required identity and supporting documents ready.
Complete the required registration
Companies are registered through RJSC, while sole proprietorships generally begin with the necessary local business registrations.
Get your Trade Licence and TIN
Apply for a Trade Licence from the relevant local authority and complete your tax registration with the appropriate information.
Check VAT and other licences
Depending on your turnover and business activity, you may also need VAT/BIN registration or other industry-specific licences.
Make sure your business name, address and ownership information are consistent across every document. Small differences can cause delays later.
