Corporate finance and MNC tax teams
An auditable change log for the group
Head-office wants to know that Bangladesh tax codes in the ERP match the rule in force, that dividends and royalties follow the current FEPD circular, and that someone can show when each change was seen and actioned. Advisor alerts are periodic and generic.
Where it hurts
- VAT, VDS and withholding changes require ERP tax-code updates on a deadline the SRO sets, sometimes immediately.
- FEPD circulars govern dividends, royalties, foreign loans and import payments; missing one delays a remittance.
- Group reporting asks for evidence: which version, seen when, actioned by whom.
- Big-firm alert distribution for Bangladesh is thinning; KPMG's member firm left the network on 30 September 2026.

Honest limits
- No API or SSO today; both are on the roadmap for Enterprise.
- Effective dates are shown only when stated in the document; otherwise unknown, which your advisor must resolve.
- Polling cadence is hourly at best; it is not a real-time feed.
- Data is held on a managed Postgres service outside Bangladesh; see the security page before procurement review.
