In the Asia Pacific (APAC) region, Stripe supports tax calculation for businesses making sales into a range of countries. The requirements for tax registration, as well as which types of transactions are included, vary from country to country.

For each country listed, you can find information about:

- The types of tax Stripe can help you collect.

## Threshold and registration for Bangladesh 

Remote sellers providing digital goods or electronically supplied services (digital products) to Bangladeshi customers must register for VAT purposes if there is at least one transaction of digital goods and services provided to private individuals in Bangladesh within a period of 12 months. Sales to business customers in Bangladesh don’t trigger any tax registration obligations because non-resident businesses aren’t required to collect tax on these sales.

## Supported calculations for Bangladesh 

In Bangladesh, Stripe only supports collecting VAT for digital services. In Stripe, these are referred to as “digital products.” To collect this tax on Stripe, you must be a remote seller without a physical presence in the country.

We only support calculations for [digital products](https://docs.stripe.com/tax/tax-codes.md?type=digital) (non-physical items or services that are delivered, given, or rendered electronically) in Bangladesh. Stripe doesn’t calculate tax for products that don’t use a digital product tax code. View the list of supported [digital product tax codes](https://docs.stripe.com/tax/tax-codes.md?type=digital). To calculate taxes in Bangladesh, make sure that you [assign a tax code](https://docs.stripe.com/tax/products-prices-tax-codes-tax-behavior.md#tax-code-on-product) to each of your products.
