Regulatory Compliance in Bangladesh

Compliance is not a one-time event but an ongoing obligation, and a single missed filing can tip a business into default. FM Consulting International helps companies and branch offices understand the requirements imposed by the various regulatory authorities and meet them on time, protecting them from the consequences of non-compliance.

The regulators that matter

Businesses in Bangladesh answer to several authorities. The Registrar of Joint Stock Companies and Firms (RJSC) regulates limited liability companies and partnerships; the Bangladesh Investment Development Authority (BIDA) oversees branch offices; Bangladesh Bank handles notifications relating to branch-office permissions; and the National Board of Revenue (NBR) governs taxation.

We map these obligations to your specific structure so that nothing is overlooked.

Recurring obligations we manage

For limited liability companies, requirements include holding at least four board meetings each year, conducting annual audits and shareholder meetings with the corresponding RJSC filings, maintaining share and director registers, and renewing the trade licence annually.

Branch offices must renew BIDA permission, ideally two months before expiry, and notify the central bank through their authorised dealer bank. On the tax side, we handle quarterly and annual returns alongside monthly, quarterly, half-yearly and annual VAT filings.
