TTI—
This line carries a specific duty. The published tariff gives no single Total Tax Incidence percentage for 17011200, because the duty is charged as a fixed amount per unit of quantity (for example Taka per metric tonne) rather than as a percentage of value. The figure marked † under CD is that amount, not a rate — the other columns on this line are genuine percentages. Confirm the unit of measurement and the current rate with NBR before calculating.

What these figures mean

Other cane sugar is classified under HS code 17011200, which sits in heading 1701 (Cane or beet sugar and chemically pure sucrose, in solid form) of chapter 17 (Sugars and sugar confectionery).

Under the Bangladesh Operative Tariff 2026-2027 this line attracts Customs Duty of 3000%, Supplementary Duty of 0%, VAT of 15%, Advance Income Tax of 0%, Regulatory Duty of 15% and Advance Tax of 7.5%.

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 February 2026 and February 2026, NBR recorded commercial imports under 17011200 in 1 of 6 months, totalling 18 kg at an assessable value of BDT 19,920. That is an average of BDT 1,107 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In February 2026 it was the 3,716th largest of 4,051 tariff lines by assessable value.

How this line compares

This is one of 58 specific-duty lines in the 7,469-line tariff. They are concentrated in a few chapters — passenger baggage, steel, fertiliser and sugar — and are the only lines for which no Total Tax Incidence percentage can be published.

The ad-valorem lines in chapter 17 average 88.6%, but that figure cannot be compared with the amounts above, which are sums of money per unit rather than rates.
