HS Code 09101190
Ginger : Neither 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 09101190 would be approximately BDT 10,000.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 10% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Ginger : Neither Crushed or ground EXCL. Wrapped/canned upto 2.5 Kg is classified under HS code 09101190, which sits in heading 0910 (Ginger, saffron, tumeric (curcuma), thyme, bay leaves, curry and other spices) of chapter 09 (Coffee, tea, mate and spices).
Under the Bangladesh Operative Tariff 2026-2027 this line attracts Customs Duty of 5%, 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 10%, 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 December 2025 and May 2026, NBR recorded commercial imports under 09101190 in 6 of 6 months, totalling 97,374,364 kg at an assessable value of BDT 9,989,216,068. That is an average of BDT 103 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 44th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.

How this line compares
Chapter 09 contains 71 tariff lines, averaging 59.18%. At 10%, 09101190 sits below that average by 49.18 percentage points. It is the 70th 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 51.08 points.
Within heading 0910 alone, rates run from 10% to 58.13% 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.
