The Bangladesh Investment Development Authority (BIDA) has expanded its Online One Stop Service (OSS) platform by integrating five new services from the Directorate of Registration.
The inauguration ceremony was held today at the BIDA Conference Room in the Investment Building, Agargaon, Dhaka.
The newly added services are: land purchase deeds, lease deeds, agreement deeds, advance (Bayna) deeds, and power of attorney deeds, along with the provision of certified copies.
With this integration, investors can now access 142 services from 47 agencies through the OSS platform, up from 137 services by 46 agencies previously.
BIDA Executive Chairman Chowdhury Ashik Mahmud Bin Harun (State Minister rank) attended the event as Chief Guest. Senior Secretary of the Ministry of Land A.S.M. Saleh Ahmed and Secretary of the Ministry of Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs Md. Liakat Ali Molla were present as Special Guests. BIDA Executive Member (Additional Secretary) Shah Mohammad Mahbub delivered the welcome remarks, while Director General of BIDA Jiban Krishna Saha Roy presented an overview of the OSS system.
In his keynote address, Chief Guest Chowdhury Ashik Mahmud Bin Harun announced that from December 16, 2025, the newly integrated registration services will no longer be provided manually. He added that the implementation progress would be reviewed after three months. Highlighting BIDA’s broader vision, he said efforts are underway to bring together all services of the country’s Investment Promotion Agencies, including BIDA and BEZA, into a unified single-window platform, targeted for launch by the end of this year.
Senior Secretary A.S.M. Saleh Ahmed noted that the Ministry of Land has already digitized all its services and is working to ensure completion of commercial land mutation within one week. He reaffirmed the ministry’s commitment to delivering investment-related services efficiently in the national interest. Secretary Md.
