Company Register 0% open

Bangladesh


What data is expected?

List of registered (limited liability) companies. The submissions in this data category do not need to include detailed financial data such as balance sheet, etc. Open data from company registers may be used for many ends: e.g. enabling customers and businesses to see with whom they deal, or to see where a company has registered offices. This definition draws on the work of OpenCorporates.

  • Name of company
  • Company address
  • Unique identifier of the company
  • Register available for entire country

How open is the data?

Original submission was rejected as no data could be found online. The Office of the Registrar of Joint Stock Companies and Firms is the sole authority that keeps records of all registered entities (companies, trade organizations, societies and partnership firms). Any one can apply for certified copy of any of such records of an entity. However, the profit & loss account of a company is not open to all. Only authorized personnel of the respective company can apply for it. On receipt of an application and requisite fee, RJSC issues certified copy of the records applied for. One applies for certified copy of record (s) through the website. Certified copies are issued for Private, Public, and Foreign Companies, Trade Organizations, Societies, and Partnership Firms. However, what company information the copies of records include is not made known, the update frequency of the data is also not stated, and whether the data records are made available online after purchase is also not clear. https://roc.portal.gov.bd/site/page/c3662525-9229-45a4-a80c-2e518d484c52
