Bangladesh Bank sets banking hours for Ramadan

Bangladesh Bank (BB) has fixed office hours from 9:30 am to 4:00 pm for all scheduled banks in the country during the month of Holy Ramadan.

However, people will be allowed to make banking transactions from 9.30 am to 2.30 pm, reports BSS citing a circular issued by the central bank on Wednesday.

For bank staff, there will be a break of 15 minutes from 1:15 pm to 1:30 pm for Zuhr prayers.

The office and banking hour will return to the earlier time after Ramadan, said the BB’s notice.
