And the exporter asked the US State Department official, Atul Keshap, to visit Bangladesh to request some export convenience to Bangladesh. Atul Keshap is the assistant assistant secretary of state for South Asia and Central Asia.

These requirements include

Zero tariff

Enter the US market.

In this regard, AKAzad, chairman of the FBCCI alliance, asked us officials to provide them with the convenience of entering the US market with zero tariff.

Azad also said that providing convenience to Bangladesh would not affect the clothing manufacturers in the United States.

Senator Jim McDermott (Jim McDermott) introduced a motion last November to provide tariff free facilities for the 15 least developed countries. Soon, many American textile companies, South American North American trade associations and African countries began to oppose the inclusion of Bangladesh in the beneficiary of the bill.

Mahbubur Rahman, President of the International Chamber of Commerce in Bangladesh, said if sub Saharan Africa and African countries could enter the United States without tariffs, why should Bangladesh be left behind?

Bangladesh garment manufacturers and Exporters Association (BKMEA) Fazlul Hoque, said the Bangladesh garment exports to the United States to pay 15% of the tariff, therefore, Bangladesh must compete with China.

Tax-free access

U.S.A

Bangladesh clothing exporters will be able to solve the dissatisfaction of garment workers in a better way.

According to Abdul Hai Sarker, President of Bangladesh Textile Mills Association (BTMA), Bangladesh imports about $500 million of cotton from the United States every year with zero tariff. If Bangladesh clothing is given zero tariff to enter the US market access, the regulation of Bangladesh imports US cotton will increase two times.
