Income tax slabs in Bangladesh for 2026-27

  1. 01Salary exemption = one third of salary income, at most Tk 5,00,000
  2. 02Tax-free: Tk 4,00,000 · women and 65+ Tk 4,50,000 · disability and third gender Tk 5,25,000 · freedom fighters and July Warriors Tk 5,50,000 (+ Tk 50,000 per disabled child)
  3. 03Then: next Tk 3,00,000 at 10% · next Tk 4,00,000 at 15% · next Tk 5,00,000 at 20% · next Tk 20,00,000 at 25% · the rest at 30%
  4. 04Rebate = lowest of 3% of taxable income, 10% of eligible investment, Tk 7,50,000
  5. 05Tax = slab tax − rebate, but at least Tk 5,000 (Tk 1,000 for a new taxpayer) once income is above the tax-free limit

The Finance Act 2026, passed on 30 June 2026, raised the general tax-free limit to Tk 4 lakh for income years 2026-27 and 2027-28 and removed the old 5% slab, so the first taxable band is now 10%. Women, people aged 65 and over, people with a disability, third-gender taxpayers and gazetted freedom fighters have higher limits.

For salaried people, one third of salary income (at most Tk 5 lakh) is exempt before the slabs are applied. Each slab rate applies only to the income inside that slab.

Investing in savings certificates, DPS, listed shares, life insurance and similar items earns a rebate — the lowest of 3% of taxable income, 10% of the investment or Tk 7.5 lakh. If your income is above the tax-free limit, you pay at least the minimum tax, now Tk 5,000 everywhere.

Bangladesh income tax calculation example

On a salary of 80,000 a month plus 160,000 in bonuses, the taxable income is 746,666.67 after the salary exemption.

With 100,000 invested, the tax is 27,000 a year, about 2,250 a month.

Good to know

  • Keep certificates for every investment — the rebate needs proof when you file.
  • Investment above 30% of your taxable income earns no extra rebate, because 10% of it already reaches the 3% cap.
  • Even if no tax is due, you may need to file a return to show proof of submission (PSR).
