.bd
Last checked 2026-08-19Purpose: Bangladesh's country code, administered by BTCL under the Posts and Telecommunications Division.
Eligibility: Effectively restricted. Registration requires a BTCL profile with uploaded documents, including a National Identity Card and a trade licence, approval or forwarding letter, or an RJSC certificate for a business registrant.
None of the registrars we track sell .bd at retail — it's available only through registry-accredited registrars (see Local registry and rules above for the official list).
BTCL operates the registration portal directly and also accredits resellers, who face their own requirements including trade licence, TIN, VAT registration, tax clearance, association membership and independent IT audit and penetration-test reports. The documentary burden is the defining feature of this namespace.
