DMD Circular Letter No. 09: Considering Passport Number as Unique Identification Number for Purchasing US Dollar Premium Bond and US Dollar Investment Bond

The Ministry of Finance amends its previous circular to allow investors without a National Identity Card (NID) to use their passport number as a Unique Identification Number for purchasing US Dollar Premium Bonds and US Dollar Investment Bonds, thereby making the NID no longer mandatory for these transactions. This directive applies to all investors in these specific bond instruments and is communicated to scheduled banks in Bangladesh by the Bangladesh Bank's Debt Management Department for necessary action.
