HS Code 04032000
yogurt
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 04032000 would be approximately BDT 64,250.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 64.25% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
yogurt is classified under HS code 04032000, which sits in heading 0403 (Yogurt; buttermilk, curdled milk and cream, kephir and other fermented or acidified milk and cream, whether or not concentrated or containing added sugar or other sweetening matter or flavoured or containing added fruit, nuts or cocoa.) 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.
Recorded imports
Between January 2026 and April 2026, NBR recorded commercial imports under 04032000 in 3 of 6 months, totalling 3,880 kg at an assessable value of BDT 729,286. That is an average of BDT 188 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In April 2026 it was the 3,986th largest of 4,161 tariff lines by assessable value.

How this line compares
Chapter 04 contains 43 tariff lines, averaging 63.48%. At 64.25%, 04032000 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.
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.
