On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 04012090 would be approximately BDT 35,000.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 35% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Milk & Cream Of >1%But<=6% Fat,Not Concentrated Or Sweetened, Nes is classified under HS code 04012090, which sits in heading 0401 (Milk and cream; not concentrated, not containing added sugar or other sweetening matter) of chapter 04 (Dairy produce; birds' eggs; natural honey; edible products of animal origin).
Under the Bangladesh Operative Tariff 2026-2027 this line attracts Customs Duty of 25%, Supplementary Duty of 0%, VAT of 0%, Advance Income Tax of 5%, Regulatory Duty of 5% and Advance Tax of 0%. Combined, these produce a Total Tax Incidence of 35%, which is the figure to multiply by the assessable value of your consignment.
The assessable value is normally the CIF value of the goods plus landing charges. Duties and taxes are applied in a defined order rather than simply added together, which is why the TTI is not the plain sum of the individual rates.

How this line compares
Chapter 04 contains 43 tariff lines, averaging 63.48%. At 35%, 04012090 sits below that average by 28.48 percentage points. It is the 35th most heavily taxed line in the chapter.
Across the whole Operative Tariff the mean is 61.08%, so this line is cheaper than the typical import by 26.08 points.
Within heading 0401 alone, rates run from 35% to 64.25% across 8 lines. Classification inside a single heading can change the bill substantially, so confirm the eight-digit code rather than working from the four-digit heading.
No supplementary duty applies here, which is the normal case — SD is zero on 78% of the tariff. Where it does apply it usually dominates every other component.
