HS Code 22084000
Rum And Tafia
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 22084000 would be approximately BDT 636,630.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 636.63% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Rum And Tafia is classified under HS code 22084000, which sits in heading 2208 (Ethyl alcohol, undenatured; of an alcoholic strength by volume of less than 80% volume; spirits, liqueurs and other spirituous beverages) of chapter 22 (Beverages, spirits and vinegar).
Under the Bangladesh Operative Tariff 2026-2027 this line attracts Customs Duty of 25%, Supplementary Duty of 350%, VAT of 15%, Advance Income Tax of 20%, Regulatory Duty of 5% and Advance Tax of 7.5%. Combined, these produce a Total Tax Incidence of 636.63%, 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 March 2026 and March 2026, NBR recorded commercial imports under 22084000 in 1 of 6 months, totalling 420 kg at an assessable value of BDT 305,940. That is an average of BDT 728 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In March 2026 it was the 3,195th largest of 4,054 tariff lines by assessable value.
| Month | Net weight | Assessable value | Per kg |
|---|---|---|---|

Bonded imports. A further 3,299 kg worth BDT 1,249,437 entered under the bonded-warehouse regime in the same period — goods brought in duty-free as inputs on the undertaking that they leave again as exports, which in Bangladesh overwhelmingly means ready-made garments. Bonded entries account for 80.3% of the total value imported under this code, the rest entering commercially.

How this line compares
Chapter 22 contains 24 tariff lines, averaging 457.39%. At 636.63%, 22084000 sits above that average by 179.24 percentage points. It is the 1st most heavily taxed line in the chapter.
Across the whole Operative Tariff the mean is 61.08%, so this line is dearer than the typical import by 575.55 points.
This line carries supplementary duty of 350%. Only 1,633 of 7,469 lines carry any SD at all, and because it is charged after customs and regulatory duty, and VAT is then charged on top of it, it affects the total far more than the rate alone suggests.
