Commercial Law in Bangladesh governs various aspects of business transactions and regulates the conduct of individuals and corporations engaged in commercial activities. The law is based on several statutes, including the Companies Act, Partnership Act, Contract Act, Sales of Goods Act, and others.

The Bangladesh government has implemented a number of measures to facilitate business growth and attract foreign investment, including the establishment of economic zones and the creation of a one-stop service center to simplify the process of starting a business.

Legal System

Commercial law in Bangladesh is largely based on the British common law system, with the Supreme Court of Bangladesh serving as the final court of appeal. The country also has specialized commercial courts to deal with commercial disputes.
