Trade agreement & duty position
Under SAFTA, India grants duty-free access to most goods from Bangladesh; Indian exports to Bangladesh get SAFTA preferential rates — use a SAFTA certificate of origin.
Whatever the tariff position, your certificate of origin (preferential where an agreement applies, non-preferential otherwise) is a required document. Confirm the live rate for your exact HS code with your customs broker before you quote.

Logistics
Plan the route before you price. Get real freight quotes for your lane to Bangladesh, confirm transit time and transhipment points, and factor destination-side charges (terminal handling, customs, delivery) into a CIF or DAP quote. See choosing a freight forwarder and Incoterms 2020.
Payment & documentation
For a new buyer in Bangladesh, use secure terms — advance payment, an irrevocable letter of credit, or documents against payment — and move to open account only with a track record. Every shipment needs the core document set plus any product-specific certificates for the destination. See export payment methods, how a letter of credit works, and the documentation checklist.
Finding buyers in Bangladesh
Identify companies already importing your product into Bangladesh from customs data, reach the named procurement contact, and open on the trade signal. EximHub does that end to end — how to find export buyers or what a verified importer database should give you.
