Corporate tax is the income tax a company in Bangladesh pays on its profits to the National Board of Revenue (NBR). HRBD computes your company tax under the Income Tax Act 2023, prepares the return and schedules, files with the NBR before your Tax Day, and handles assessments, so your company stays compliant.
HRBD covers the full corporate tax cycle for companies in Bangladesh, from computing taxable profit at the right rate to filing the return and answering the NBR afterwards. Whether you are a private limited company, a listed company or a foreign-owned business, we apply the correct rate, file on time under the Income Tax Act 2023, and keep the whole file in one place so your company tax is accurate and ready if the NBR asks to see it. We also handle VAT where your company is registered for it.
Every company operating in Bangladesh, whether private limited, publicly listed or foreign-owned, must file a corporate income tax return with the NBR, whatever its profit. HRBD files for each type and applies the rate that matches it. We handle local companies, listed companies and the Bangladesh operations of foreign parents, and keep company tax aligned with the owners’ income tax where relevant.
