Bangladesh legal data from official sources, structured for AI and legaltech.
Bangladeshi laws, regulations, and court decisions live across the Laws of Bangladesh (bdlaws.minlaw.gov.bd), the Bangladesh Gazette, government ministries, regulators, and the courts. Lawstronaut structures legal data from official sources into one format used across more than 150 jurisdictions — with every record linked to its official source. Structured Bangladesh coverage is not yet live; Team and Enterprise customers can request priority onboarding of the sources below.

Bangladeshi legal coverage will include primary legislation, secondary legislation, regulatory materials, court decisions, guidance, enforcement documents, and legislative history where available.

Legislative History
Bills and parliamentary materials from the Jatiya Sangsad (National Parliament) where available, version by version, each tied to its source.
Regulatory Guidance & Enforcement
Circulars, notifications, guidelines, and enforcement materials from Bangladeshi regulators such as Bangladesh Bank, the BSEC, the BTRC, and the National Board of Revenue.
Case Law
Judgments of the Supreme Court of Bangladesh — the Appellate Division and the High Court Division — from official sources, where available.
One Bangladeshi legal data layer. Four ways to use it.
Lawstronaut API
Query Bangladeshi laws, regulations, court decisions, regulatory guidance, and enforcement materials through a REST API. Use structured metadata, full text, Markdown, source links, and version history to power legaltech products, compliance workflows, and internal research tools. Bangladesh coverage is being onboarded — the endpoint below is live and will return records as coverage lands.
GET /v2/contents?iso=BD&limit=20Lawstronaut MCP
Connect ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Cursor, and other AI agents to Bangladeshi legal sources. Questions become live searches against the corpus and return citation-ready answers grounded in official Bangladeshi materials — deployable in minutes, with no integration work, once coverage is live.
AI Agent Integration
Give your legal AI agent same-turn provenance: it retrieves current Bangladeshi legal materials — official source links, metadata, and full text — before generating an answer, with a citation and timestamp on every response.
Build with Lawstronaut
Build Bangladeshi legal search, monitoring, compliance, research, and legal AI features without crawling, parsing, normalizing, and updating official sources yourself. We handle source discovery, ingestion, normalization, versioning, and change detection; you build the product.

Why Lawstronaut for Bangladeshi legal research
Bangladeshi legal information is spread across the consolidated statute database, the national gazette, parliament, ministries, regulators, and the courts. For humans, that means slow research. For AI systems, it's a bigger problem: fragmented source access, inconsistent formats, missing provenance, and weak citation trails.
Lawstronaut turns those sources into one structured legal data layer — source links, metadata, full text, versioning, and API/MCP access. Your product or agent retrieves the legal source directly instead of relying on generic web search or unverified model memory. Every answer carries a citation, a timestamp, and a link to the official document — the provenance that makes a legal research platform defensible to auditors and regulators.
About Bangladesh legal coverage
Bangladesh is a common-law jurisdiction, its legal system inherited from English common law through the era of British India, with a written Constitution of the People's Republic of Bangladesh (1972) as the supreme law. Primary legislation takes the form of Acts of Parliament, ordinances, and delegated rules and regulations; the authoritative consolidated texts are maintained in the Laws of Bangladesh (bdlaws.minlaw.gov.bd) by the Legislative and Parliamentary Affairs Division of the Ministry of Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs, while new instruments are published in the Bangladesh Gazette. Laws are enacted by the unicameral Jatiya Sangsad (National Parliament), and case law comes from the Supreme Court of Bangladesh, comprising the Appellate Division and the High Court Division. Regulators such as Bangladesh Bank, the Bangladesh Securities and Exchange Commission, the Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission, and the National Board of Revenue issue guidance in their fields. Older statutes are in English; more recent laws are frequently enacted in Bengali, with English texts widely relied on.
Bangladeshi law moves quickly: the Cyber Security Act, 2023 replaced the earlier Digital Security Act, 2018, the Bangladesh Labour Act was again amended in 2023, and a personal data protection framework has been under active development — so citations to superseded provisions can simply be wrong. Point-in-time data straight from the source is what keeps a Bangladesh legal research answer correct today.
