Pharmaceutical Law and Health Legal Services in Bangladesh

The rapid development of the pharmaceutical market, the establishment of new production sites, and the growth of domestic pharmaceutical companies, alongside the expansion of major international players into Bangladesh, have led our legal consulting firm to specialize in providing legal support specifically for pharmaceutical companies. This area has gained significant attention from the state, reflected in increasing volumes and complexities in industry rulemaking, as well as a focus on developing domestic pharmaceutical production.

Our extensive experience with both Bangladeshi and international pharmaceutical companies enables us to assemble specialized teams tailored to address a wide range of issues of varying complexity.

One critical area of our practice involves providing legal assistance in conducting internal investigations to identify potential violations of Bangladeshi anti-corruption laws and relevant provisions of foreign laws, such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) and the UK Anti-Bribery Act.
