Trust Registration in Bangladesh
Trust Registration in Bangladesh starts with a sophisticated legal strategy to ensure long-term asset protection. Accordingly, the specialists at Segunbagicha Consultancy manage every technical detail of the registration process for you. Furthermore, a Trust functions as a vital legal framework where a founder transfers assets to trustees for a specific mission.
Consequently, you must register your entity under the Trust Act, 1882 to achieve full legal standing. In light of this, our team facilitates the entire journey from initial drafting to the final approval at the Sub-Registrar Office. As a result, we make the transition from a vision to a legally compliant organization fast and seamless.
What Is a Trust?
Essentially, a Trust constitutes a fiduciary relationship where the Settlor (founder) entrusts property to Trustees. Specifically, these trustees manage the assets diligently for the benefit of Beneficiaries or a social cause.
Notably, Bangladesh recognizes two primary categories of trusts:
Private Trust: Primarily, these serve family interests, wealth inheritance, or private estate management.
Public/Charitable Trust: Conversely, these focus on public welfare such as healthcare, education, and religious relief.
Because the Trust Act, 1882 dictates the legal parameters, you must file your application in the specific jurisdiction of the trust property.
Step-by-Step Trust Registration Process
Initially, we implement a systematic workflow to guarantee your organization meets all government standards:
Deed Drafting: First, our legal experts craft a comprehensive Trust Deed defining all operational powers.
Notarization: Subsequently, we print the document on non-judicial stamps and secure a formal notary seal.
Execution: Meanwhile, the settlor and all trustees sign the document in the presence of witnesses.
Official Submission: Following this, we present the finalized deed to the Sub-Registrar Office for verification.
Legal Certification: Then, the authorities issue the official registration, granting your trust its legal identity.
Post-Registration: Finally, we provide auxiliary support for TIN certificates and bank account openings.
Required Documents for Trust Registration
To proceed, you must prepare the following documentation for our legal team:
Professional Trust Deed (authored by our experts).
NID Records for the settlor and every appointed trustee.
Passport Photographs of all members involved in the management.
Proof of Address for the registered office or trust property.
Two Witnesses who possess valid National ID cards.
Non-judicial Stamps, with the value determined by the total trust assets.
Benefits of Registering a Trust
Moreover, formalizing your trust provides several strategic advantages for long-term growth:
Legal Status: Thus, your entity gains irrevocable recognition under the Trust Act, 1882.
Fiduciary Security: In turn, the law protects the rights and interests of all beneficiaries.
Enhanced Credibility: Furthermore, a registered deed builds immediate trust with donors and financial institutions.
Tax Compliance: Accordingly, your trust satisfies all regulatory and transparency requirements.
Financial Mobility: Lastly, registration empowers you to receive donations and manage institutional bank accounts.
