The starting point

Decisions to frame
early

Early choices may raise connected questions about the venture’s proposed activities, participants, ownership assumptions and jurisdictions. The points below are prompts for legal issue-spotting, not recommendations or a formation route.

01

Choose the legal questions before choosing the vehicle

Identify the proposed activities, stakeholders, jurisdictions and capital assumptions before considering a formation route within the Companies Act and RJSC&F setting.

This page provides general information and does not determine a legal, regulatory or commercial outcome.

02

Make ownership and governance legible

Clarify founder roles, decision rights, initial ownership assumptions and investor-readiness questions before material commitments are considered.

This page provides general information and does not determine a legal, regulatory or commercial outcome.

03

Identify what the venture owns or needs rights to use

Identify questions about creation, assignment, licence and brand or technology ownership before external engagement. DPDT registration considerations may be separate where relevant.

Bangladesh context

Bangladesh context

Bangladesh is the primary jurisdictional frame for this page. Cross-border questions may engage additional laws and requirements, and each question depends on the relevant facts, documents, activities, parties, jurisdictions and law in force at the time.

Companies Act, 1994; Registrar of Joint Stock Companies and Firms

Company-law and registry context

The Companies Act, 1994 is part of the statutory company-law framework, and RJSC&F provides the official registry and digital-service environment relevant to a venture contemplating a Bangladesh company.Read source
Bangladesh Bank — Foreign Direct Investment

Foreign-capital questions need fact-specific assessment

Bangladesh Bank publishes an FDI portal addressing company set-up, share issuance, transfers, dividends and related reporting topics. This is a current official signpost, not a conclusion on a proposed capital structure.Read source
Department of Patents, Designs and Trademarks

IP is a distinct institutional strand

DPDT identifies patents, design rights, trademarks and geographical indications within its public functions and services, which supports a separate IP-readiness conversation where relevant.Read source

Questions, not prescriptions

What may
matter.

These answers are general information. The applicable route depends on the facts, documents and current legal position.

What Bangladesh sources are relevant when a technology venture is being formed?
The Companies Act, 1994 is part of the statutory company-law framework, and RJSC&F is the relevant official registry institution. The applicable route depends on the facts and current requirements; this page does not provide a filing list, timing, cost or entity recommendation.
What if a proposed investor is outside Bangladesh?
Foreign participation may involve Bangladesh Bank’s FDI and foreign-exchange framework and should be reviewed against the transaction facts and current directions. This page does not state that a proposed share issue, transfer, remittance or repatriation is permitted.
Does technology or brand ownership matter before investor discussions?
The ownership chain is a relevant issue to identify, and DPDT has a role in patent, design, trademark and geographical-indication services. This does not state that an asset is protected, registrable, enforceable or owned by the venture.

Begin with context

Discuss your venture’s legal
questions

Arrange a consultation to discuss your venture’s legal questions. For an initial contact, provide only a high-level, non-confidential summary; do not send documents, source code, credentials, customer data, investor materials or other sensitive information until secure information-sharing instructions have been provided.

Legal information only. Legal information only. This page provides general information about legal issues that may arise when a technology venture is being considered, formed or prepared for an investment discussion. It is not legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, investment, financing, intellectual-property, data-protection or sector-licensing advice. It does not state that any entity structure, investment, share issuance, foreign-exchange arrangement, IP position, licence, filing or transaction is appropriate, available, permitted, complete or likely to be approved. Reading this page, using a link or contacting TRW does not create a lawyer–client relationship. Legal requirements depend on the relevant facts, documents, activities, parties, jurisdictions and law in force at the relevant time. Specialist advice may be required for matters outside this page’s stated scope, including tax, data protection, fintech and other regulated activities, IP registration and disputes. Do not send confidential, privileged, personal, commercially sensitive or security-sensitive information through an unverified channel. A high-level, non-confidential summary is sufficient for an initial contact. The selected deal record is a stated Legal 500-hosted profile record, not a statement of result, client testimonial or independently verified transaction history. Source attribution and client-consent status should be confirmed before relying on this published record. The record does not establish that the same services are available, appropriate or likely to produce a particular result in another matter.
Source links are provided for reader verification. Legal and regulatory materials can change, and the relevance of any source-attributed transaction record depends on the source, facts and current context.
