Customs houses to run on limited scales during Durga Puja holidays

Bangladesh's customs houses and stations will continue to provide services on a limited scale to facilitate imports and exports during the upcoming Durga Puja holidays, beginning tomorrow.

The move aims to ensure uninterrupted trade flows despite the two-day public holiday from October 1–2 during the biggest religious festival of the Hindu community.

In a notice today, the National Board of Revenue asked officials to take necessary steps so that cross-border shipments can proceed during the festival period.
