Welcome to the business page of the U.S. Embassy – Dhaka website!
With a steadily growing economy of 170 million people, Bangladesh, the seventh most populous country and one of growing strategic importance to the U.S., offers promising opportunities for U.S trade and investment. Many U.S. firms are already successfully working in Bangladesh, and the number is growing. Diverse sectors offer opportunities for U.S. companies, including natural gas exploration and production, power generation, financial services, infrastructure, agribusiness, information technology, consulting services, and civil aviation to name just a few.
The U.S. Embassy in Dhaka stands ready to help U.S. companies export goods and services to Bangladesh, and pursue investment opportunities in Bangladesh. Our website provides detailed information about the business facilitation services that we offer and links to useful information on Bangladesh’s business climate, including our annual Country Commercial Guide and Investment Climate Statement.
