The Bangladesh government has decided to continue providing cash incentives for 43 export products in the 2026–27 fiscal year, maintaining the same rates as before. A circular issued by Bangladesh Bank on Sunday confirmed that no new sectors were added to the list. The incentives, ranging from 0.30 percent to 10 percent depending on the product, will apply to goods shipped between July 1, 2026, and June 30, 2027, subject to compliance with foreign exchange regulations and documentation requirements.

According to the circular, export-oriented domestic textile industries will receive a 1.50 percent cash incentive as an alternative to duty drawback and bond facilities, while exporters to the Eurozone will get an additional 0.50 percent. Other eligible sectors include handmade products from natural fibers, frozen fish, agricultural goods, halal meat, leather goods, furniture, plastic, paper, pharmaceuticals, software, and IT products, each with specific incentive rates.

The continuation of the same incentive structure as the previous fiscal year indicates the government’s intent to sustain export competitiveness and support diverse manufacturing and agricultural sectors.
