Bangla industry chamber requests Turkiye to relax tariffs on RMG items

Turkey imposes an extra 17 per cent tariff for RMG products from Bangladesh.

Progress in public-private and business-to-business partnership between the two countries remains low as well, he said.

The bilateral trade can be enhanced to over $2 billion through better trade diversification, Rahman said.

Turkish investors can consider Bangladesh's 100 economic zones and 28 high-tech parks as their preferred investment destination, he said.

He also requested the minister to extend the current duty-free and quota-free tariff line facility to Bangladesh which is now 79.9 percent for trade growth.
