The Ministry of Social Welfare has finalized the 'Family Card Piloting Implementation Guideline-2026', which will be officially launched by Prime Minister Tareq Rahman on March 10 at the Karail slum in Dhaka. The program was initially planned for Bogura but was shifted due to the upcoming by-election in Bogura-6. The finalized policy excludes families with government pensioners, car or air-conditioner owners, government employees, and large business owners from eligibility.
According to the guideline, priority will be given to landless and homeless families, households with disabled members, and marginalized groups such as hijra, bede, and ethnic minorities. Eligible women beneficiaries will receive funds directly into their mobile wallets or bank accounts. The existing TCB card will be integrated into a dynamic social registry, enabling access to food aid and future benefits like education stipends and agricultural subsidies.
The pilot project will cover 13 diverse areas with a budget of 21.1 million taka, aiming to reach 6,500 poor families initially and expand to 20 million families. The long-term goal is to transform the Family Card into a universal social ID card by 2030.
