Whether you need to send luggage ahead, ship suitcases, or move boxes of belongings, we collect, handle your UK customs export entry, and deliver, so your move to Bangladesh is one less thing to worry about.

Bangladesh is an established route for Excess Luggage Co. since 1998. Bangladesh National Board of Revenue (NBR) administers customs at Dhaka. The NRB scheme provides duty concessions for Non-Resident Bangladeshis returning home with personal effects. An NRB card or valid foreign residency documentation is required.

Your questions answered

What is the NRB duty concession for Bangladesh?
Bangladesh NBR grants duty concessions on personal effects for Non-Resident Bangladeshis (NRBs). You need an NRB card or valid foreign residency documentation, itemised packing list, and items must be used personal goods — not new commercial goods.
How long does shipping to Bangladesh take?+
Air freight from UK door to Dhaka takes 5–9 working days. Allow additional time for NBR customs clearance. With correct NRB documentation, clearance is typically efficient.
What should I avoid in a Bangladesh shipment?+
No lithium batteries in a standard shipment (remove from all devices), no aerosols or perfumes. No alcohol, pork products, or material contrary to Islamic values. Declare all electronics accurately with realistic used values.
What destination charges are payable at Dhaka?+
Destination handling charges at Hazrat Shahjalal cargo are payable locally at collection. We advise on expected charges at booking.
Can I ship new goods using the NRB concession?+
No — new goods in original packaging are assessed at full commercial NBR duty rates regardless of NRB status. The NRB concession applies to used personal effects only.
