The government has proposed making a tax identification number (TIN) certificate mandatory for opening bank accounts in the upcoming national budget for the 2026-27 fiscal year."I propose that, except for student accounts, no-frills accounts, and individuals exempted from obtaining a TIN through a gazette notification issued by the NBR, any person opening a bank account must submit a TIN certificate," said Finance Minister Amir Khosru Mahmud Chowdhury while presenting the national budget for FY27 in parliament today.
