Dear Sir,

Reference is drawn to your attention to FEPD-1 Circular No. 17, dated: July 05, 2026, on the subject cited above.

2. Appendix-C, Serial No. 1 of the aforementioned circular provides for an alternative cash incentive of 1.50% in lieu of customs bond and duty draw-back for the export-oriented domestic textile sector. In accordance with the government decision, the existing cash incentive in the said sector is increased from 1.50% to 5.00%. In this regard, the exporter (member of BGMEA/BKMEA/other associations) must submit proof of procurement of raw materials (yarn/fabric) from domestic sources prior to availing the incentive. In the case of procurement of yarn/fabric, the instructions of FE Circular No. 07, dated: June 03, 2003 and FE Circular No. 09, dated: March 05, 2001, along with the applicable instructions of all other relevant circulars/circular letters, shall remain unchanged as usual.

All concerned parties are instructed to be informed about this matter.

Yours faithfully,
