HS Code 09082290
Mace : Crushed or ground, EXCL. Wrapped/canned upto 2.5 Kg
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 09082290 would be approximately BDT 30,000.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 30% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Mace : Crushed or ground, EXCL. Wrapped/canned upto 2.5 Kg is classified under HS code 09082290, which sits in heading 0908 (Nutmeg, mace and cardamoms) 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 0%, VAT of 0%, Advance Income Tax of 5%, Regulatory Duty of 0% and Advance Tax of 0%. Combined, these produce a Total Tax Incidence of 30%, 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 April 2026 and April 2026, NBR recorded commercial imports under 09082290 in 1 of 6 months, totalling 300 kg at an assessable value of BDT 1,251,982. That is an average of BDT 4,173 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In April 2026 it was the 2,735th largest of 4,161 tariff lines by assessable value.
| Month | Net weight | Assessable value | Per kg |

How this line compares
Chapter 09 contains 71 tariff lines, averaging 59.18%. At 30%, 09082290 sits below that average by 29.18 percentage points. It is the 55th 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 31.08 points.
Within heading 0908 alone, rates run from 30% to 88.75% across 12 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.
