About Bangladesh (BD)

Bangladesh is one of the world's most densely populated countries, a South Asian nation in the Ganges-Brahmaputra delta. Dhaka, the capital, is a megacity with over 20 million people. Bangladesh is the world's second-largest garment exporter and has experienced rapid economic growth. The Bangladeshi Taka (BDT) uses the เงณ symbol from Bengali script. For developers, the BD country code maps to the bn-BD locale for Bengali โ€” the seventh most spoken language in the world. The .bd domain and +880 calling code serve Bangladesh. Bengali script (Unicode range U+0980โ€“U+09FF) requires complex text rendering with conjunct consonants and vowel signs. Bangladesh has one of the world's highest rates of mobile financial service adoption through bKash and similar platforms. The Bengali numeral system uses its own digit characters (เงฆเงงเงจเงฉเงชเงซเงฌเงญเงฎเงฏ), which may appear in localized number displays. Bangladesh's massive population and growing digital economy make proper Bengali locale support critically important for South Asian applications.
