BCCISA stands for Bangladesh Chamber of Commerce and Industries South Africa. It is a business association that connects Bangladeshi and South African entrepreneurs to promote trade, investment, and cooperation between the two countries.

Any Bangladeshi-origin business owner, company, or professional operating in South Africa—and South African businesses interested in trade with Bangladesh—can apply for membership.

Members gain access to networking opportunities, trade and investment information, business forums, training, advocacy support, and participation in chamber events and exhibitions.

You can complete the online membership form on our website or download the application form, attach required documents (SA ID or Bangladesh Passport), and submit it via email to membership@bccisa.org.za.

Members pay a once-off registration fee and a monthly subscription fee of R2,000, due by the 5th of each month, as decided in the 1st AGM.

The head office is in Johannesburg, South Africa, with plans to open regional offices in other provinces in the future. A temporary office or co-working space will be designated initially.
