HS Code 12149090
Other Forage Products, Nes, (Excl. Wrapped/Canned upto 2.5 kg)
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 12149090 would be approximately BDT 10,000.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 10% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Other Forage Products, Nes, (Excl. Wrapped/Canned upto 2.5 kg) is classified under HS code 12149090, which sits in heading 1214 (Swedes, mangolds, fodder roots, hay, lucerne (alfalfa), clover, sainfoin, forage kale, lupines, vetches and similar forage products, whether or not in the form of pellets) 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 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 December 2025, NBR recorded commercial imports under 12149090 in 1 of 6 months, totalling 11 kg at an assessable value of BDT 5,511. That is an average of BDT 501 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In December 2025 it was the 4,012th largest of 4,219 tariff lines by assessable value.

How this line compares
Chapter 12 contains 91 tariff lines, averaging 22.9%. At 10%, 12149090 sits below that average by 12.9 percentage points. It is the 65th 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 1214 alone, rates run from 10% to 33.63% across 4 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.
