The Government of Bangladesh has introduced mandatory pre-case mediation in 30 districts under the Legal Aid Services (Amendment) Act, 2026, pursuant to a notification dated 30 July 2026.

The mediation mechanism applies to certain disputes, including:

โ€ข Cheque dishonour cases under section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881, where the cheque amount does not exceed Tk. 3 lakh; and

โ€ข Dowry-related torture cases under section 11(c) of the Nari O Shishu Nirjatan Daman Ain, 2000.

For disputes falling within the specified categories in these districts, parties will now need to consider the pre-case mediation requirement before initiating court proceedings.

The initiative represents an important development in Bangladesh's growing use of alternative dispute resolution mechanisms, with the potential to resolve suitable disputes at an earlier stage and reduce unnecessary litigation.

Many legal disputes begin with small documentation mistakesโ€”missing details, unclear wording, or incomplete records.
Maintaining accurate and well-organised documents supports transparency and helps avoid unnecessary complications.

Strong documentation practices are a key part of responsible legal and business conduct.

Legal compliance is not a one-time exercise.
Regular review of statutory obligations helps businesses stay protected, avoid penalties, and operate with confidence.

Licensing conditions, filings, and regulatory requirements should be monitored continuously to reduce legal risk.

At OGR Legal, we encourage businesses to treat compliance as an ongoing responsibility.
