HS Code 12072190
Cotton Seeds EXCL. Wrapped/canned upto 2.5 Kg
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 12072190 would be approximately BDT 0.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 0% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Cotton Seeds EXCL. Wrapped/canned upto 2.5 Kg is classified under HS code 12072190, which sits in heading 1207 (Oil seeds and oleaginous fruits, n.e.c. in chapter 12; whether or not broken) of chapter 12 (Oil seeds and oleaginous fruits; miscellaneous grains, seeds and fruit; industrial or medicinal plants; straw and fodder).
Under the Bangladesh Operative Tariff 2026-2027 this line attracts Customs Duty of 0%, Supplementary Duty of 0%, VAT of 0%, Advance Income Tax of 0%, Regulatory Duty of 0% and Advance Tax of 0%. Combined, these produce a Total Tax Incidence of 0%, 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
NBR recorded no commercial imports under 12072190 between December 2025 and May 2026. That is not unusual — roughly a third of the 7,469 lines in the schedule saw no commercial import in that window. Goods may still have entered under a bonded-warehouse regime, or been declared under a neighbouring code.

How this line compares
Chapter 12 contains 91 tariff lines, averaging 22.9%. At 0%, 12072190 sits below that average by 22.9 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 61.08 points.
Within heading 1207 alone, rates run from 0% to 64.25% across 20 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.
