The United States imported $703.6M/month and exported $101.2M/month with Bangladesh as of February 2026, covering 530 product categories.
Bangladesh is the world's second-largest apparel exporter and a critical sourcing destination for ready-made garments (RMG) for global retailers and brands. It benefits from duty-free access to the EU and other markets as a least-developed country, though it does not have a bilateral FTA with the United States. Trade professionals should monitor Bangladesh's graduation from LDC status, which will affect its preferential trade access in the coming years.

Ready-made garments (RMG), including woven and knitwear apparel, account for over 80% of Bangladesh's export earnings; other exports include jute and jute goods, leather, shrimp, and pharmaceuticals.
As an LDC, Bangladesh receives duty-free, quota-free access to the EU under EBA, and preferential access to many other markets; it is scheduled to graduate from LDC status around 2026, which will alter these preferences.
Buyers should assess factory compliance with labor standards, building and fire safety regulations (post-Rana Plaza reforms), rules of origin requirements, and social audit certifications required by major retail markets.
