HS Code 28352200
Phosphates Of Mono Or Disodium
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 28352200 would be approximately BDT 33,630.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 33.63% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Phosphates Of Mono Or Disodium is classified under HS code 28352200, which sits in heading 2835 (Phosphinates (hypophosphites), phosphonates (phosphites), and phosphates; and polyphosphates, whether or not chemically defined) of chapter 28 (Inorganic chemicals; compounds of precious metals, rare-earth metals, radioactive elements or isotopes).
Under the Bangladesh Operative Tariff 2026-2027 this line attracts Customs Duty of 5%, Supplementary Duty of 0%, VAT of 15%, Advance Income Tax of 5%, Regulatory Duty of 0% and Advance Tax of 7.5%. Combined, these produce a Total Tax Incidence of 33.63%, 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.

How this line compares
Chapter 28 contains 200 tariff lines, averaging 38.13%. At 33.63%, 28352200 sits below that average by 4.5 percentage points. It is the 126th 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 27.45 points.
Within heading 2835 alone, rates run from 27.5% to 33.63% across 8 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.
