Frequently asked questions

Still have a question?

If your question isn't answered below, use the suggestion form on any company page or get in touch with the team. We read everything, in English and in Bangla.

What is BDLUC?

BDLUC (BD Live Urban City) is a free, bilingual directory of Bangladeshi companies shown as a live 3D city. Every company is a building, every industry is a district.

How much does it cost to list my company?

Nothing. Listing is free and takes about two minutes.

Do I need an account?

You need a free account to list or claim a company, so that only you can edit it. Browsing the city and the Explore list needs no account.

My company is already in the city, but I didn't add it. Why?

We add some companies from public information so the city reflects the real economy. These listings are marked unclaimed and show no contact details. You can claim yours after a short identity check.

How do I claim a listing?

Open the company's page and choose Claim. Give your name, role, work email and phone, and upload a document showing you represent the company. We review it by hand and delete the document once the claim is decided.

Can I add a company that isn't mine?

Yes, as a suggestion. Tell us about a missing company and we will check it before it gets a plot. The owner can claim it later.

Some information about a company is wrong. What can I do?

Use Suggest an edit on that company's page. We review every suggestion before changing anything.

What do the building heights and styles mean?

Height is team size, from two floors for up to ten people to eighteen floors for more than a thousand. Style is founding year: brick before 1995, concrete from 1995 to 2011, glass from 2012.

Why does the city go dark?

Day and night follow Dhaka time. If it is night in Bangladesh, it is night in the city, and the windows light up.

The 3D city is slow on my phone. Is there another way?

Yes. Explore shows every company as a plain list you can search and filter. It is light enough for slow connections and older phones.

Can I use BDLUC in Bangla?

Yes. The whole site works in English and Bangla, and you can write your listing in either language.

Can I advertise on BDLUC?

Sponsored plots, rooftop billboards and branded vehicle fleets are coming soon. They are optional and never affect whether you can be listed.

Is BDLUC the official list of registered companies?

No. BDLUC is an independent directory for discovery. For legal registration records, check with the RJSC.
