About Abdul Kuddus

Adv Abdul Kuddus, an advocate at TRW & Co in Dhaka, works on tax law advisory and tax compliance. The practice of Abdul Kuddus is built on careful analysis of the facts, a firm command of procedure and advice that clients can act on.

Tax questions rarely wait, and Abdul Kuddus helps clients answer them promptly: how a transaction will be taxed, what withholding applies, how VAT and customs rules affect a supply chain, and how to respond when an assessment or audit notice arrives.

Because TRW operates as one firm across its practice fields, Abdul Kuddus can bring in colleagues on tax disputes, VAT & customs and cross-border questions quickly, while keeping responsibility for the client's matter clear.

Abdul Kuddus acts for individual taxpayers, importers, exporters, service businesses and multinational subsidiaries. Whether the matter is urgent or long-running, the same standards apply: accurate advice, documents prepared with care, deadlines tracked closely and a straightforward explanation of each step and its consequences.

Many matters in Bangladesh turn on procedure as much as on substance: the right forum, the correct court fee, the limitation period and the evidence that a court or authority will accept. Close attention is paid to these points from the outset, because getting them right avoids delay and protects the client's position later.
