Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 44211000 would be approximately BDT 39,750.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 39.75% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Clothes Hangers Of Wood is classified under HS code 44211000, which sits in heading 4421 (Wooden articles n.e.c. in heading no. 4414 to 4420) of chapter 44 (Wood and articles of wood; wood charcoal).
Under the Bangladesh Operative Tariff 2026-2027 this line attracts Customs Duty of 10%, 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 39.75%, 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 44 contains 135 tariff lines, averaging 47.77%. At 39.75%, 44211000 sits below that average by 8.02 percentage points. It is the 57th most heavily taxed line in the chapter.

Within heading 4421 alone, rates run from 28.73% to 64.25% across 6 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.
