At Segunbagicha Consultancy, we provide comprehensive, end-to-end services. Moreover, our expert guidance ensures full legal compliance and transparency, enabling your organization to make a meaningful social impact.
What Is an NGO in Bangladesh?
A non-governmental organization (NGO) is a non-profit, non-political entity formed to serve humanitarian or community development goals. Clearly, it can focus on several areas. For instance, common types of NGOs include
Charitable and welfare foundations
Educational and training institutions
In addition, health, and sanitation groups
Human rights and women’s rights organizations.
Furthermore, rural development and microfinance groups
Notably, NGOs can be local, national, or international, depending on their specific funding sources and area of operation.
Step-by-Step NGO Registration Process
To begin with, the registration process follows a very specific legal sequence. Initially, our team guides you through these essential steps:
Name Clearance from RJSC: First, we apply for your NGO’s name approval to ensure it is unique.
Draft Constitution (Bylaws): Next, we prepare your NGO’s constitution, defining its objectives and financial policies.
RJSC Registration: Subsequently, we submit your documents for incorporation under the Societies Registration Act, 1860.
NGOAB Application: Following this, we assist in filing your registration for organizations seeking foreign donations.
TIN and Bank Setup: Meanwhile, we arrange your NGO’s TIN Certificate and help open a bank account.
Approval and Operation: Finally, once approved, your NGO can legally operate and receive donations.
Required Documents for NGO Registration
You must prepare several documents for a successful application. For example, you will need:
Name clearance from RJSC
Constitution/Bylaws (Expertly prepared by us)
At least seven founding members’ lists
NID and photographs of all members
Moreover, you must provide office address proof and a bank solvency certificate.
Consequently, for NGOs receiving foreign funds, we handle all additional NGOAB forms and project details for you.
Benefits of NGO Registration
Clearly, registration offers numerous strategic benefits for your organization. For example:
Legal Compliance: You gain formal recognition and legal protection.
Funding Eligibility: Notably, it allows you to receive both local and foreign funding.
