Bangladesh has already done FTAs and PTAs with these countries and organizations

Keeping this in mind Bangladesh is focusing on bilateral free and preferential trade deals as a strategy to overcome the possible losses of global trade concessions after its graduation to a developing economy.

Studies on the feasibility of signing Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) and Preferential Trade Agreements (PTAs) with several countries have been completed already.

According to an official document, the countries and organizations include Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand, Japan and Eurasian Economic Commission.

The possibility of Bangladesh signing such trade agreements with China, Myanmar, Nigeria, Mali, Macedonia, Mauritius, Jordan, the USA, Iraq and Lebanon is also being analyzed.
