For foreign companies with no Bangladesh office but real people to pay here. We run the entire monthly BDT cycle — salaries, contractor payments, NBR withholding, PF, gratuity, bank transfers — from Dhaka, so every payment lands on time and every filing lands on time.
You have customers, projects or operations that need people in Bangladesh, but no physical setup here. We run the whole payroll operation locally on your behalf — from contract to bank transfer to the NBR filing that keeps you clean.
Salaried employees who live and work in Bangladesh under Labour-Act 2006 contracts. Monthly BDT payroll, PF, gratuity accrual, festival bonuses, tax challans — every regulated component covered.
Contractor payments made in BDT with NBR-compliant TDS deducted at source. Monthly retainer, milestone or hourly billing supported. Every payment ships with a bilingual tax certificate.
Most clients run both. We handle the classification, the two invoice streams and the year-end reporting in one consolidated monthly cycle. One system, one point of contact, one number to pay.
Global payroll platforms hand you a portal and expect you to run compliance yourself. We do the opposite: our Dhaka-based ACCA lead runs the cycle, and you approve one summary at the end.

Every payroll and contractor payment we process is grounded in specific Bangladesh law: Labour Act 2006 (ss. 120–125 salary payment, s.264 provident fund, s.2(10) gratuity); NBR Income-Tax Act 2023 and Income-Tax Rules (s.53 TDS on contractor payments, s.50 TDS on salaries); BIDA for expatriate remote workers where relevant. Our template is refreshed each quarter and re-reviewed by Barrister Farhana Rahman before it hits your contract.
USD 79 / active employee / month. For companies that already have a Bangladesh entity and just need us to run the cycle.
USD 49 / active contractor / month, minimum 3 contractors. TDS at source, monthly BDT payment, bilingual tax certificate.
USD 249 / employee / month (USD 199 from 10+). We become the legal employer — you don’t need a Bangladesh company at all.
No setup fee, no lock-in, 30-day MSA notice either way. Full breakdown on the pricing page.

No. If you don’t have a Bangladesh company, we run payroll under our own EOR (EORBangladesh Ltd., RJSC C-186423/2019) — we become the legal employer or contractor counterparty. If you do have your own entity, we run payroll under your entity as a payroll-only service. Same team, same cycle, different price point.
TDS at source under s.53 of the Income-Tax Act 2023 and the NBR Income-Tax Rules. The exact rate depends on the contractor’s service category and TIN status — we determine it on onboarding, deduct it from every payment, deposit the challan with NBR and issue a bilingual tax certificate the contractor can use in their own return.
All major private and foreign banks operating in Bangladesh: Eastern Bank, BRAC Bank, City Bank, Dutch-Bangla, Standard Chartered, HSBC, Mutual Trust, Prime Bank, Islami Bank. Bank file is generated in the local BACH / RTGS format your bank expects.
Employees enrolled in our recognised PF scheme contribute 7–8% of basic salary, matched by the employer share, calculated and deposited monthly. Gratuity accrues at 30 days’ basic per year of service (rising to 45 days after 10 years), computed on your books each month per Labour Act s.2(10).
Yes. Two annual festival bonuses (Eid-ul-Fitr, Eid-ul-Azha) are handled inside the standard monthly cycle at no extra cost. Off-cycle payments (mid-month bonus, correction) are USD 45 per off-cycle run.
We handle the full & final settlement, gratuity payout, PF withdrawal or transfer, and issue the tax-clearance certificate needed for NBR sign-off. Standard turnaround: 15 business days from the effective leave date.
