Tax on English-language schools in Bangladesh
If you want your child to attend an English-language school in Bangladesh, it will cost you extra. Not only do you have to pay tuition fees for these private schools, but you also have to pay a 15 percent value-added tax (VAT) on English school fees. All other schools are exempt from this tax, which is why the Bangladesh High Court declared the VAT discriminatory and illegal. But the government continues to impose and collect the tax.
