Why these defaults?

The country code comes from ISO 3166. Unicode CLDR supplies presentation-oriented locale, currency, paper, date, language, calendar, numbering, and direction metadata. Defaults reduce setup time; they do not decide what a valid document must contain.

Recorded official or regional-official language tags: bn.

Document vocabulary and checks

NBR sources support the cited VAT-6.3 particulars, BIN context and covered-business EFD/SDC/PKI POS boundary. Record retention is not yet evidenced here, so this pack remains partial. VAT registration, BIN validation, sector selection, QR or digital-signature fiscalisation, authority reporting and transaction-specific tax treatment remain separate checks.

Evidence snapshot: 2 official sources · last reviewed 2026-07-18. This is scoped guidance, not a jurisdiction-wide compliance certification.

Tax labels: VAT, Supplementary Duty. Business identifier labels: Business Identification Number (BIN).

  • Guidance: Bangladesh NBR identifies VAT-6.3 as the tax invoice. Its FAQ lists purchaser name, invoice number, seller BIN, purchaser BIN where applicable, supply details, quantity, value and tax involved. For covered businesses using NBR-approved EFD/SDC/PKI POS, the NBR notice describes a VAT Smart Challan with QR code and digital signature. This local preview does not verify a BIN, determine VAT registration/sector obligations, or issue an NBR-approved fiscal document.Evidence BD_NBR_VAT_INVOICE_FAQ, BD_NBR_EFD_SDC_NOTICE · reviewed 2026-07-18 · review by 2027-01-18 · automation advisory only
