Issued by the Bangladesh Bank’s Monetary Policy Department, this circular prohibits the export of betel leaf unless it is accompanied by certification from the Bangladesh Betel Leaf (Pan) Exporters Association. The directive implements a Board of Directors mandate and aligns with a prior June 2026 circular to standardize export documentation. All scheduled banks are instructed to ensure strict compliance and distribute the guidelines to relevant bankers and the public for immediate operational implementation.
