Bangladesh’s government is preparing to introduce the Electronic Business Registration System, or eBRS, to digitize company registration through the Registrar of Joint Stock Companies and Firms. At a Monday meeting at the Ministry of Commerce, officials said the system aims to let entrepreneurs complete every step, from name clearance to final registration, from home. During its initial phase, the target is to complete registrations within hours after rapid official verification.

Commerce Minister Khandaker Abdul Muktadir said applicants would no longer need to visit the RJSC office, as the institution’s operations would be fully automated. The system will allow applications at any time and will pre-verify national ID, e-TIN and mobile numbers in real time to identify inaccurate or inconsistent information and help prevent fraud.

Entrepreneurs will be offered model, customized and pre-approved MOA and AOA options. BUET’s CSE department is advising on technical quality and security, while registration-module testing has been completed. Integration work with EC, BTRC and BDCCL is nearing completion. Developer Dynamic Solution Limited is scheduled to complete final transformation and handover by January 15, 2027.
