What Is a Textile (DoT) License?

A Textile (DoT) License is an official permit issued by the Department of Textiles that allows a textile-related business—such as a garment factory, dyeing/printing unit, or export buying house—to operate legally.

It confirms that the business follows industry standards, quality controls, and compliance as per Bangladesh’s textile regulations.

What Is a Buying House License?

A buying house license is required for businesses that act as intermediaries between foreign apparel buyers and local manufacturers.
It enables the company to represent international brands, manage and fulfill orders, and coordinate quality control and shipment logistics. Buying houses is a key part of Bangladesh’s garment export ecosystem—and they must be registered with the Department of Textiles (DoT) before operation.
