Hand the whole payroll function to HRBD and stop running it in-house: the employee record, the monthly cycle, employee payroll queries and the statutory filings all transfer to one accountable team in Dhaka. That is what makes outsourcing different from payroll processing, where HRBD runs only the monthly cycle and you keep the records and the queries. Salaries are calculated against your approved structure, income tax is withheld under National Board of Revenue rules, the bank salary file and payslips go out on the pay date, and the returns are filed. You approve the register each month and receive the reports; nothing else stays with you. See all options on payroll services.

HRBD holds the master record for every employee, enters joiners, leavers and pay changes from your written instruction, and answers employee payroll questions directly.
Calculation, NBR income tax withholding, bank salary file, digital payslips and reconciliation, run to a fixed cut-off and approved by you before payment.
Tax deposited by challan, monthly and annual returns filed, provident fund and gratuity schedules kept, and the audit trail archived for every pay run.
HRBD is a Dhaka-based HR, payroll and Employer of Record company. Four commitments apply to every outsourcing engagement and are written into the engagement letter before the first cycle.
The same HRBD team holds the record, runs the cycle, answers employee questions and files the returns. A change in headcount, pay or leave reaches the payslip and the tax return in the same month, and there is one named person to call.
Income tax is withheld per employee under the rules of the National Board of Revenue, deposited by challan and reported on time. Wages, leave, overtime and termination pay are calculated to the Bangladesh Labour Act, and every rule change is applied to the next cycle without a request from you.
Salary data, tax records and payslips are held under written confidentiality terms and shared only with the people you name. Employees see their own payslip and nothing else.
Outsourcing starts with a reconciled handover from your current process and a parallel month. If you ever bring payroll back in-house or move provider, HRBD returns the full record, history and filings in a format your system can load.
Four areas transfer to HRBD in full. Each is stated in the engagement letter with its cut-off, approver and reporting point.
Personal and bank details, grade, salary structure, allowances, deductions, joining and exit dates, and every pay change with the instruction behind it, maintained by HRBD and available to you on request.
Gross pay, deductions and income tax calculated each month against your approved structure; register issued with a variance note; bank salary file and digital payslips released on the pay date after your approval.
Employees send payroll questions to HRBD, not to you: payslip explanations, tax certificates, provident fund balances and leave-pay calculations, answered under your policies within the cycle.
Tax deposited and monthly returns filed; annual returns and provident fund and gratuity schedules kept; a monthly cost report by department and a year-end reconciliation supplied in formats your accounting system can load.
HRBD takes your employee list, salary structures and the last three pay runs, builds the master record and reconciles it against what was actually paid.
HRBD runs one month alongside your existing process. You compare the two registers line by line before anything transfers.
From the following month HRBD runs the cycle, answers employee queries and files the returns. You approve the register and receive the reports.
Payroll outsourcing is the transfer of the whole payroll function to an external provider. With HRBD in Bangladesh that means the employee master record, the monthly calculation and payment cycle, employee payroll queries and the statutory filings all move to HRBD, while you approve the register each month and receive the reports.
Payroll processing covers the monthly cycle only: calculation, tax withholding, bank file, payslips and reconciliation, while you keep the employee record and answer employee questions yourself. Payroll outsourcing transfers all of it, including the record, the queries and the filings. Both are run by the same HRBD team and you can move between them by a scope addendum.
Your company remains the legal employer and the employment contracts stay in your name; HRBD administers payroll on your behalf. If you have no Bangladesh entity, HRBD can instead employ the staff for you through its employer services and run the same payroll as the legal employer.
HRBD withholds income tax from each salary under National Board of Revenue rules, based on the employee's tax status and the approved pay structure, deposits it by challan and files the required monthly and annual returns. Employees receive their tax certificates from HRBD.
Yes. Salary data, tax records and payslips are held under written confidentiality terms and shared only with the people you name. Each employee sees their own payslip and nothing else.
You can. HRBD returns the full employee record, pay history and filing copies in formats your system can load, and runs a final parallel month with your team if you want one. The engagement letter states the notice period; there is no exit fee.
Corporate income tax filing for the company, statutory audit, work visas for foreign nationals, and payroll software or an employee self-service portal. HR policy work and recruitment are separate services.
Payroll outsourcing is one of the scope options on payroll services in Bangladesh; a fuller scope, where HRBD also handles ongoing HR decisions, is managed payroll services. Foreign companies without an entity use employer services.
