Bangladesh Cards Ltd manufacturing complex, Kaliakoir Hi-Tech Park, Gazipur
Why this facility exists

Every smart card Bangladesh needs, made in Bangladesh

Smart cards are one of the key components of the modern economy — used every day across public, corporate, business and private life, from bank cards to SIMs to national identity documents. Until now, all of this has been imported.

Bangladesh Cards Ltd removes that dependency. This international-standard facility, paired with a modern security printing plant, is categorised as an Import Substitution manufacturing operation — built with the capacity and compliance to export as well.
