- Bangladesh’s cabinet approved a draft VAT and Supplementary Duty (Amendment) Ordinance, 2026, subject to vetting, to restore monthly-style VAT filing.
- VAT returns would again be due within 15 days after the end of each tax period, replacing the current rule allowing filing every three tax periods.
- If the 15th day falls on a public holiday, filing would move to the next working day.
- Certain taxpayers would get extended time: government, semi-government and autonomous bodies, banks, insurance companies, and zero-return filers could submit within 20 days after each tax period.
