The Labor Law of 2006 says children must be 14 years old to work but it is hard to enforce the law because so many children work in the informal sector (factories, workshops, the streets, home based businesses, domestic employment).
It is also difficult to enforce this law because Bangladesh has one of the lowest rates of birth registration making it hard to know a child's true age and whether or not they should work.
