HS Code 44123100
Oth plywood cons. solely of sheets of wood (not bamboo),...not exceeding 6 mm thickne
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 44123100 would be approximately BDT 80,180.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 80.18% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Oth plywood cons. solely of sheets of wood (not bamboo),...not exceeding 6 mm thickne is classified under HS code 44123100, which sits in heading 4412 (Plywood, veneered panels and similar laminated wood) of chapter 44 (Wood and articles of wood; wood charcoal).
Under the Bangladesh Operative Tariff 2026-2027 this line attracts Customs Duty of 25%, Supplementary Duty of 10%, VAT of 15%, Advance Income Tax of 5%, Regulatory Duty of 5% and Advance Tax of 7.5%. Combined, these produce a Total Tax Incidence of 80.18%, 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 April 2026 and April 2026, NBR recorded commercial imports under 44123100 in 1 of 6 months, totalling 1,150 kg at an assessable value of BDT 153,429. That is an average of BDT 133 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In April 2026 it was the 3,378th largest of 4,161 tariff lines by assessable value.
| Month | Net weight | Assessable value | Per kg |
|---|---|---|---|
| April 2026 | 1,150 kg | BDT 153,429 | BDT 133 |
Bonded imports. A further 2,510 kg worth BDT 229,122 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 59.9% of the total value imported under this code, the rest entering commercially.

How this line compares
Chapter 44 contains 135 tariff lines, averaging 47.77%. At 80.18%, 44123100 sits above that average by 32.41 percentage points. It is the 4th 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 19.1 points.
This line carries supplementary duty of 10%. 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.
