Society Registration Bangladesh

Starting a non-profit organization or social group in Bangladesh becomes much easier when you have the right professional support. Therefore, Segunbagicha Consultancy provides complete NGO and Society Registration services, ensuring full legal compliance without hassle. As a result, you can focus on your social mission while we manage all documentation and approvals efficiently.

Society registration under the Societies Registration Act, 1860, is essential to legally establish any non-profit, welfare, or charitable organization. In Bangladesh, the Registrar of Joint Stock Companies and Firms (RJSC) handles this process. Moreover, our experienced team delivers end-to-end services in Dhaka, from drafting core documents to obtaining final RJSC approval. Consequently, your organization can begin its activities confidently and without delay.

What Is a Society?

A society is a group of individuals formed for charitable, educational, cultural, religious, or social purposes. Unlike profit-based businesses, a society does not distribute profits among members. Instead, all income is reinvested to achieve its stated objectives. Therefore, this structure is ideal for:

  • NGOs and community organizations

  • Educational and cultural institutions

  • Charity and welfare organizations

  • Religious, social, and environmental groups

Step-by-Step Society Registration Process

The society registration process follows a clear and structured path. Throughout each stage, we guide you carefully to ensure accuracy and compliance.

  1. Name Check and Reservation
    First, we verify and reserve your proposed society name through the RJSC system.

  2. Preparation of Rules Document
    Next, we draft the Rules and Regulations document, clearly defining governance, objectives, and member responsibilities.

  3. Collection of Required Documents
    After that, we collect National ID cards, photographs, and address proofs from all founding members.

  4. Online Application Submission
    Then, we submit the complete application to RJSC for official review.

  5. RJSC Review and Approval
    Subsequently, RJSC examines the documents and issues the Society Registration Certificate upon approval.

  6. Post-Registration Support
    Finally, we assist with Tax Identification Number (TIN) registration and bank account opening.

Required Documents for Society Registration

To ensure a smooth application process, the following documents are required:

  • Name clearance certificate from RJSC

  • Society Rules and Regulations document (prepared by us)

  • List of at least seven founding members

  • National ID cards and passport-size photos of all members

  • Office address proof

  • Minutes of the first general meeting

Benefits of Registering a Society

Registering a society provides several important advantages. Most importantly, it grants legal recognition under Bangladeshi law.

  • Legal status under the Societies Registration Act, 1860

  • Eligibility to receive government and donor funding

  • Increased credibility with local and international partners

  • Legal protection for members and organizational assets

Therefore, registration strengthens both trust and long-term sustainability.
