HS Code 09062000
Cinnamon And Cinnamon-Tree Flowers, Crushed Or Ground
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 09062000 would be approximately BDT 88,750.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 88.75% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Cinnamon And Cinnamon-Tree Flowers, Crushed Or Ground is classified under HS code 09062000, which sits in heading 0906 (Cinnamon and cinnamon-tree flowers) of chapter 09 (Coffee, tea, mate and spices).
Under the Bangladesh Operative Tariff 2026-2027 this line attracts Customs Duty of 25%, Supplementary Duty of 20%, VAT of 15%, Advance Income Tax of 5%, Regulatory Duty of 0% and Advance Tax of 7.5%. Combined, these produce a Total Tax Incidence of 88.75%, 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 May 2026, NBR recorded commercial imports under 09062000 in 5 of 6 months, totalling 274,875 kg at an assessable value of BDT 77,528,126. That is an average of BDT 282 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 1,378th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.

How this line compares
Chapter 09 contains 71 tariff lines, averaging 59.18%. At 88.75%, 09062000 sits above that average by 29.57 percentage points. It is the 10th 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 27.67 points.
Within heading 0906 alone, rates run from 55% to 88.75% across 5 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.
This line carries supplementary duty of 20%. Only 1,633 of 7,469 lines carry any SD at all, and because it is charged after customs and regulatory duty, and VAT is then charged on top of it, it affects the total far more than the rate alone suggests.
