Legal

Aviation Law in Bangladesh

Commercial aviation in Bangladesh is expanding, driven by tourism, business travel and the mobility of a large expatriate workforce across the region. FM Consulting International supports airlines and aviation businesses through the regulatory and commercial requirements of operating in this tightly governed sector.

Establishing an airline

Setting up an airline begins with company registration through the Registrar of Joint Stock Companies and proceeds to the licensing requirements of the Civil Aviation Authority of Bangladesh (CAAB), including the Operational Services Provider Licence (OSPL) that forms a foundational requirement.

We guide clients through these steps and the related labour and environmental department compliance, along with tax and VAT registration.

Fleet, agreements and ongoing support

We advise on aircraft leasing across dry, damp and wet lease arrangements, and on the import and registration of aircraft and engines.

Beyond the fleet, we draft and vet aviation agreements and provide payroll and accounting support, so that operators have a single adviser across the legal and operational demands of the business.
