Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 04015010 would be approximately BDT 64,250.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 64.25% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Milk & cream ..added sugar or ..Of a fat content, by weight, >10%, Wrapped./Canned upto is classified under HS code 04015010, 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 15%, Advance Income Tax of 5%, Regulatory Duty of 5% and Advance Tax of 7.5%. Combined, these produce a Total Tax Incidence of 64.25%, 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.

That is an average of BDT 231 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 3,134th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.

How this line compares
Chapter 04 contains 43 tariff lines, averaging 63.48%. At 64.25%, 04015010 sits above that average by 0.77 percentage points. It is the 11th most heavily taxed line in the chapter.
Across the whole Operative Tariff the mean is 61.08%, so this line is dearer than the typical import by 3.17 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.
