As multinational companies are expanding their business into every corner of the globe, tax authorities are seeking more effective measures to protect their tax revenue. National Board of Revenue (NBR) of Bangladesh introduced transfer pricing regulation in Bangladesh tax laws for the first time through Finance Act 2012 which has become effective from 1 July 2014. Bangladesh transfer pricing regulation targets international transactions between two associated entities, either or both of whom are non-residents. Transfer pricing regulation mostly affects multinational companies or foreign companies having direct or indirect transactions with their subsidiaries, associates or other legal form of entities (e.g. liaison office, branch office, agent, etc.) in Bangladesh.
The compliance requirements under transfer pricing regulations in Bangladesh include submission of TP return in a prescribed form, maintenance of transfer pricing documentation, and obtaining certificate from an Accountant in certain circumstances.
