HS Code 26020000
Manganese Ores/Concentrates(Inc.Ferruginous), With Manganese Cont.Of=>20%
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 26020000 would be approximately BDT 9,500.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 9.5% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Manganese Ores/Concentrates(Inc.Ferruginous), With Manganese Cont.Of=>20% is classified under HS code 26020000, which sits in heading 2602 (Manganese ores and concentrates, including ferruginous manganese ores and concentrates with a manganese content of 20% or more, calculated on the dry weight) of chapter 26 (Ores, slag and ash).
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 2%, Regulatory Duty of 0% and Advance Tax of 7.5%. Combined, these produce a Total Tax Incidence of 9.5%, 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 26020000 in 6 of 6 months, totalling 76,068,396 kg at an assessable value of BDT 1,904,322,989. That is an average of BDT 25 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 2,625th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.
