HS Code 44191900
Other, excl. Bread boards, chopping boards and similar boards & Chopsticks
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 44191900 would be approximately BDT 64,250.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 64.25% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Other, excl. Bread boards, chopping boards and similar boards & Chopsticks is classified under HS code 44191900, which sits in heading 4419 (Tableware and kitchenware, of 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 0%, 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 64.25%, 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 44191900 in 6 of 6 months, totalling 116,091 kg at an assessable value of BDT 9,120,343. That is an average of BDT 79 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 2,408th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.

Bonded imports. A further 370 kg worth BDT 447,229 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 4.7% 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 64.25%, 44191900 sits above that average by 16.48 percentage points. It is the 42nd 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 3.17 points.
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.
