Deadline for tax return submission extended to Dec 31
The deadline for individual taxpayers to file their tax returns has been extended by a month by the National Board of Revenue (NBR).
The previous deadline was November 30.
In a notice issued yesterday, the tax administration said it would continue to accept personal income tax returns until December 31, 2024.
The time has been extended due to demands from various professional bodies, the NBR said in the press release.
Individual taxpayers can also submit their income and wealth statements both online and in person without being subject to any fines.
The release added that the NBR was taking measures to encourage taxpayers to file returns online, adding that 3.75 lakh taxpayers had filed their returns electronically so far.
Earlier, the NBR made the online filing of tax returns mandatory for government officials under tax zones of the Dhaka, Narayanganj and Gazipur city corporations.
It also asked all bankers and officials of mobile network operators to file returns electronically for the current assessment year.
