Business due diligence is the structured checking of a company, partner or supplier before you sign, invest or hire. HRBD runs due diligence in Bangladesh by verifying company registration with the RJSC, reviewing financial records, confirming tax standing with the NBR and checking employment matters under the Bangladesh Labour Act, 2006.
Signing with a partner, supplier or key hire in Bangladesh usually means taking their word for who they are. HRBD replaces that trust with verification. We check company registration and directors against RJSC records, review financial records and liabilities, confirm tax and VAT standing with the NBR, and verify people through the same recruitment team that screens candidates for our clients every week. Every finding in your report carries its source, and where a fact cannot be verified we say so instead of papering over it. For checking an investment or acquisition target in depth, our investment due diligence service picks up where these business checks end, and our investment advice team can act on what the checks find.
Whether you are entering Bangladesh through a local partner, choosing a supplier or hiring for a sensitive role, HRBD checks the facts first, alongside the company formation and legal work that often follows.
A local partner or distributor verified before you sign anything.
Registration, standing and payment behaviour confirmed in advance.
Background and reference checks run through our recruitment team.
Business due diligence is the structured checking of a company, partner or supplier before you sign, invest or hire. HRBD verifies registration, financial records, tax standing and employment matters against Bangladesh registers so you decide on facts, not claims.
We check company registration and directors with the RJSC, review financial records and liabilities, confirm tax and VAT standing with the NBR, and verify key people and employment history. The exact scope is agreed with you before we start.
Yes. For checking an investment or acquisition target in depth, see our dedicated investment due diligence service. This page covers general business checks on partners, suppliers and hires.
No. A statutory audit is a licensed audit of a company’s own accounts. Due diligence is an investigation you commission into another party, and our findings are for your decision, not a certified opinion.
No check can make a deal risk-free. Due diligence reduces risk by verifying facts you would otherwise take on trust, and by flagging gaps we could not verify, so you know where the remaining risk sits.
Yes. Checks run discreetly under written confidentiality terms. We rely on public registers and sources agreed with you, and the other party is not contacted unless you ask us to.
Usually just the name and registration details of the company or person you want checked, plus what worries you. We collect the rest from public registers and sources agreed with you.
You tell us who you are dealing with and what decision the check supports, we agree the scope and written terms with no obligation, and we set a reporting date, so you know what you are getting before we begin.
Due diligence is only worth paying for if the person doing it has no stake in the answer. HRBD is not part of your deal, earns nothing from it closing and reports what the records show, in writing, with sources. We are honest about the limits too: a check is not a statutory audit or a certified opinion, no check can make a deal risk-free, and nothing on this page is legal advice. For the legal questions a finding raises, our legal consultation team covers labour and corporate compliance, and your lawyer covers the rest.
When you contact HRBD, we agree what to check and the written terms that cover it, with no obligation. From there we collect, verify and report, alongside the legal consultation work a deal may need.
Most bad deals in Bangladesh are not caused by hidden fraud but by facts nobody checked: a company that never filed returns, a director with a trail of disputes, a supplier already unable to pay its own bills. The tables below show what a business due diligence check covers and the registers and laws each check runs against.
