Qatar shows interests to have FTA with Bangladesh

Qatar has expressed interest in signing a Free Trade Agreement (FTA) with Bangladesh, as confirmed by Salman F Rahman, private industry and investment adviser to the prime minister, following a bilateral meeting between the two countries. State Minister for Commerce Ahsanul Islam Titu proposed the FTA during the meeting, to which the Qatari delegation responded positively. The meeting, held at Le Meridien Hotel in Dhaka, was led by Salman F Rahman from the Bangladesh side and Sheikh Mohammed bin Hamad Al Thani, Qatar’s Minister of Commerce and Industry.

Qatar Amir Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad Al-Thani arrived in Dhaka for a two-day official visit, during which six agreements are expected to be signed between the two nations. These agreements cover various areas including taxation, legal cooperation, maritime transport, mutual investment, transfer of convicted persons, and establishment of a joint business council. Additionally, five memorandums of understanding (MoUs) are likely to be signed, focusing on areas such as labor force, higher education, scientific research, and diplomatic training.
