HS Code 07070090
Cucumbers And Gherkins, Fresh Or Chilled, Nes
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 07070090 would be approximately BDT 35,000.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 35% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Cucumbers And Gherkins, Fresh Or Chilled, Nes is classified under HS code 07070090, which sits in heading 0707 (Cucumbers and gherkins; fresh or chilled) of chapter 07 (Edible vegetables and certain roots and tubers).
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.

That is an average of BDT 249 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 3,444th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.

How this line compares
Chapter 07 contains 153 tariff lines, averaging 52.55%. At 35%, 07070090 sits below that average by 17.55 percentage points. It is the 89th 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 0707 alone, rates run from 35% to 64.25% across 2 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.
