About Payroll2Bangladesh

About Payroll2Bangladesh — A Dhaka-Based Payroll, EOR and HR Company

Payroll2Bangladesh is a Dhaka-based payroll outsourcing, employer of record (EOR) and HR services company that has served foreign employers since 2007. It holds its own Bangladeshi entity, so overseas companies can hire, pay and manage staff in Bangladesh under the Labour Act 2006 without registering a local company.

One office. One legal employer. One invoice.

Most companies that want to hire in Bangladesh face the same three-way choice: incorporate a local company at the Registrar of Joint Stock Companies and Firms (RJSC) and wait months, engage contractors and carry misclassification risk, or work through a global platform that reaches Bangladesh through an unnamed in-country partner. Payroll2Bangladesh exists to remove that trade-off. The company that quotes the price is the same company that signs the employment contract, runs the BDT payroll, withholds income tax and deposits it with the National Board of Revenue (NBR), and answers when a Labour Act question comes up at 10 p.m. Dhaka time.

The operating office is at JCX Business Tower in Bashundhara R/A, Dhaka. Payroll, tax and compliance work is performed in Bangladesh by Bangladeshi practitioners — not routed to a shared services centre in another country — and clients are served across every division of the country.

Any prospective client, auditor or counterparty can request the registration documents and verify the legal employer independently before signing. We would rather be checked than have a claim taken on trust.

How We Compare to Other Ways of Hiring in Bangladesh

There are four realistic routes to employing someone in Bangladesh. Each has a defensible use case. The table sets out the trade-offs honestly, including the cases where Payroll2Bangladesh is not the right answer.

Four routes to employing staff in Bangladesh, compared
Comparison point Payroll2Bangladesh (local EOR) Global EOR platform Local payroll bureau / audit firm Your own Bangladeshi entity
Who is the legal employer Payroll2Bangladesh — the company you contract with The platform, or an unnamed in-country partner in markets where the platform holds no entity You are — the bureau only processes Your own company
Local entity required from you No No Yes Yes — RJSC, trade licence, NBR
Typical published fee From USD 300 per employee per month Widely published Bangladesh rates run USD 200–600 per employee per month, with several major platforms listing USD 399–599 Usually quoted per payslip or as a monthly retainer No vendor fee, but incorporation, accounting, audit and HR headcount instead
Who answers a Labour Act question The Dhaka team that drafted the contract A support queue; escalation path to the local entity varies by provider Usually the client’s own HR or counsel Your in-house team
Time to first compliant hire Days once scope and salary are agreed Days, where the provider already holds a Bangladeshi entity Only after your entity exists Months — RJSC incorporation, licensing and registration
Scope beyond payroll HR, recruitment, accounting, tax filing, work permits and company registration from the same team Typically employment and payroll only; other functions are separate products Accounting and tax; employment usually out of scope Whatever you build and staff yourself
Exit End the service contract End the platform subscription End the engagement Formal company wind-up
When it is not the right choice Very large permanent operations, or where a client mandates a single global vendor across dozens of countries Where you need deep, named, Bangladesh-specific advisory rather than a platform SLA Where you have no entity and cannot be the legal employer Small or exploratory teams where the fixed cost is not yet justified

Third-party pricing shown as published market ranges rather than named vendor quotes, because vendor list prices change and are frequently discounted on volume. Ranges last reviewed in August 2026. Always request a current written quote from any provider before comparing.

How an Engagement Works

Six steps, no surprises. The same sequence applies whether the client is hiring one person or thirty.

1

Scope and written quote

You tell us the roles and approved salary levels. You receive a written per-employee cost covering service fee, gross salary and statutory employer costs. No obligation.

2

Compliant contracts

Employment contracts drafted under the Bangladesh Labour Act 2006 and Labour Rules 2015, issued and signed before anyone starts work.

3

Employee onboarding

Documentation, personnel files and payroll registration completed ahead of day one, including work permit filings where the hire is an expatriate.

4

Monthly BDT payroll

Salaries calculated and disbursed in Bangladeshi taka through local banks and bKash, with a payslip issued every cycle.

5

NBR tax deposit

Income tax withheld at source and deposited with the National Board of Revenue on the statutory calendar, keeping the client outside Bangladesh’s payroll-tax filings.

6

Reporting and compliance

Monthly reporting plus leave, benefits, festival holidays and Labour Act administration, year-round, on one consolidated invoice.

Governance, Compliance and Accountability

Acting as a legal employer is a liability position, not a software subscription. These are the controls that sit behind it.

Compliance and governance framework
Area What we apply
Employment law Bangladesh Labour Act 2006 and Bangladesh Labour Rules 2015 — contracts, working hours, leave, festival holidays, overtime, notice and termination
Income tax Withholding at source on every salary and deposit with the National Board of Revenue on the statutory calendar
Wage payment timing Monthly wage cycle observed in line with the Labour Act’s payment-timing requirements
Statutory benefits Provident fund, gratuity accrual and festival bonus treated as employer obligations and provisioned, not discovered at year end
Expatriate authorisation Work visa and work permit filings completed before employment begins
Employee data Personnel records and payroll data held under confidentiality terms in the service agreement
Escalation A named point of contact in Dhaka. Compliance questions are answered by the person who drafted the contract, not a ticket queue
Accountability Each client is assigned a named account lead in Dhaka, identified by name in the service agreement, who owns payroll accuracy, statutory deadlines and escalation for that account

Frequently Asked Questions About Payroll2Bangladesh

Who is the legal employer when a foreign company uses Payroll2Bangladesh?

Under the employer-of-record model, Payroll2Bangladesh is the legal employer on record in Bangladesh. The firm holds the local entity, trade licence and NBR registration, signs the Labour Act 2006 employment contract, and carries the statutory employer obligations. The client company directs the day-to-day work but stays outside Bangladesh’s employment and payroll-tax filings.

Does Payroll2Bangladesh use a third-party partner entity in Bangladesh?

No. Payroll2Bangladesh operates its own Bangladeshi entity from Dhaka rather than subcontracting to an in-country partner. Global aggregator platforms often reach Bangladesh through a local partner, which adds a layer between the client and the legal employer. Here the provider and the legal employer are the same company.

What services does Payroll2Bangladesh provide?

Six connected practice areas are delivered from one Dhaka office: payroll processing and compliance, employer of record, PEO services, HR outsourcing and consulting, BPO and KPO work including accounting, bookkeeping, tax return filing and customer support, and company registration covering branch, liaison and virtual office setup.

How much does Payroll2Bangladesh charge?

Service fees start at USD 300 per employee per month, covering payroll, onboarding and core compliance, with a USD 2,000 tier adding full HR support. The employee’s gross salary and statutory employer costs are billed at cost on the same monthly invoice. Published Bangladesh market rates for employer-of-record services generally run from USD 200 to USD 600 per employee per month.

Where is Payroll2Bangladesh located?

The operating office is at JCX Business Tower, 1133/A, Block I, Bashundhara R/A, Dhaka, Bangladesh. All payroll, tax and compliance work is performed by the Dhaka team rather than routed offshore, and clients are served across every division of Bangladesh.

Which Bangladeshi laws govern the employment contracts Payroll2Bangladesh issues?

Employment contracts are drafted under the Bangladesh Labour Act 2006 and the Bangladesh Labour Rules 2015, which govern working hours, leave, festival holidays, overtime and termination.
