What a workspace in Bangladesh is set to before you touch it
Choose the country and the rest follows. None of these are typed in by you, and none of them are typed in by us either — they come from the same reference table the product uses to localise a live workspace.

BIN—— set in settings
A bill with this market’s symbol, decimal places, tax wording and registration label. The rate shown is an example; the labels are not.
Why it fits here
What this does for a salon in Bangladesh
Three things that are true of this market specifically, rather than three things that would be true of anywhere.
VAT registration named the way you name it
The registration field reads BIN, because the country decides the label. Nobody on your counter has to work out that "Tax number" means their Business Identification Number.
A July year, carried correctly
The financial year opens on 1 July here, and the product knows it. Software that assumes a January year is six months out on every annual comparison it draws.
The taka in whole units
Money is stored as whole poisha and never as a floating-point number, so a long day of small tickets still adds up to the figure in the drawer.

Week opens Sunday
Three different answers appear across the markets we serve — Sunday, Monday and Saturday — so the product stores the day rather than assuming it.

Where imported software breaks
What gets Bangladesh wrong
Every one of these is something a product built for somewhere else assumes, and every one of them is visible to your staff on the first day rather than to your accountant in month nine.
The week opens on Sunday
The working week here does not match the Monday assumption baked into most Western scheduling software, and a rota built on the wrong week start is wrong every week.
Bengali names in a Latin field
Customer and staff names are stored as free Unicode text, so a name written in Bengali script is stored as written rather than transliterated into something nobody recognises.
Two rates on one ticket
Services and retail products are not always treated alike. Per-line rates mean that is a number on a line, not a second invoice.
Turnover by VAT rate

ReducedBDT
Zero-ratedBDT
Each line on a bill carries its own rate in basis points, so several rates on one ticket stay separable all the way to the report.

What it does not do here
The parts we are not going to pretend about
Nothing is illustrated in this section, because there is nothing here to sell. These are the reasons a salon in this market might be right to say no.
No NBR fiscal-device integration
Bangladesh has been extending mandatory VAT fiscal devices and electronic invoicing for retail and service businesses. This product does not talk to any of that hardware or its reporting endpoints. If your salon falls in scope, that is a separate system alongside this one.
Tax you pay is not tracked, only tax you charge
Expenses record a gross amount and no rate, so the software cannot tell you your input tax. The report gives you output tax properly — turnover and tax by month, and turnover grouped by rate — and your accountant supplies the other half.
Reports run on dates, not on your financial year
The product knows when your year opens and shows it, but nothing defaults to it yet. You pick the dates. That is a small annoyance where the year opens on 1 January and a real one where it does not.
One workspace is one country
Country, currency and registration belong to the workspace, not the branch. A group trading either side of a border runs one workspace each side and consolidates outside the product.
Straight answers
Common questions about SaloonERP in Bangladesh
Every answer here is also marked up for search engines. They are the same words either way — describing the product one way to a reader and another way to a crawler is the oldest trick on this list and we are not doing it.
Does SaloonERP work for salons in Bangladesh?
Yes. Choosing Bangladesh as the country sets the workspace to Bangladeshi Taka (BDT) at 2 decimal places, names the sales tax "VAT" and the registration "BIN", opens the week on Sunday and the financial year on 1 July. None of that is configuration you do yourself.
What tax does SaloonERP handle in Bangladesh?
Every service, product and bill line carries its own rate in basis points, so several rates can appear on one ticket and the report groups taxable turnover by the rate it was charged at — the shape a VAT return asks for. Your BIN is stored once and prints on invoices. Tax you pay to suppliers is not tracked.
Do you have an office in Bangladesh?
No. Our two offices are in Nagpur and Kathmandu, and support for Bangladesh runs from Nagpur. We would rather say that than imply a local team.
Is SaloonERP compliant with Bangladesh's invoicing requirements?
No NBR fiscal-device integration. Bangladesh has been extending mandatory VAT fiscal devices and electronic invoicing for retail and service businesses. This product does not talk to any of that hardware or its reporting endpoints. If your salon falls in scope, that is a separate system alongside this one.
Can one SaloonERP account cover Bangladesh and another country?
No. Country, currency and tax registration belong to the workspace rather than the branch, so a group trading either side of a border runs one workspace each side. Within Bangladesh you can run as many branches as you like, each with its own address, phone, timezone and opening hours.
What does SaloonERP cost in Bangladesh?
List prices are published in Nepali rupees on our pricing page and start at Rs 2,500 a month, with a fourteen-day trial and no card required. Ask us for a quote in BDT and we will give you one.
Getting help
Supported from Nagpur
There is no desk in Bangladesh. Support runs from our office in Nagpur, on its hours, and we would rather tell you that than imply a local team.
Salons, spas, barbershops, beauty parlours and nail bars in Bangladesh all run the same way here — a chair, a queue, a bill and a till. Whatever it is called where you are, this is the same product.
