Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 33049100 would be approximately BDT 162,560.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 162.56% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Powders,Whether Or Not Compressed,For Beauty/Makeup/Skin Care/Preparation is classified under HS code 33049100, which sits in heading 3304 (Cosmetic and toilet preparations; beauty, make-up and skin care preparations (excluding medicaments, including sunscreen or sun tan preparations), manicure or pedicure preparations) of chapter 33 (Essential oils and resinoids; perfumery, cosmetic or toilet preparations).
Under the Bangladesh Operative Tariff 2026-2027 this line attracts Customs Duty of 25%, Supplementary Duty of 45%, VAT of 15%, Advance Income Tax of 5%, Regulatory Duty of 20% and Advance Tax of 7.5%. Combined, these produce a Total Tax Incidence of 162.56%, 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.

That is an average of BDT 635 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 2,141st largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.

How this line compares
Chapter 33 contains 33 tariff lines, averaging 122.71%. At 162.56%, 33049100 sits above that average by 39.85 percentage points. It is the 5th 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 101.48 points.
This line carries supplementary duty of 45%. 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.
