HS Code 48026100
OTH.PAPER& PAPERBOARD,WEIGHT >10% BY WEIGHT OF TOTAL FIBRE CONTENT,IN ROLL
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 48026100 would be approximately BDT 64,250.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 64.25% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
OTH.PAPER& PAPERBOARD,WEIGHT >10% BY WEIGHT OF TOTAL FIBRE CONTENT,IN ROLL is classified under HS code 48026100, which sits in heading 4802 (Uncoated paper and paperboard, used for writing, printing or other graphics, non perforated punch-cards and punch tape paper, in rolls or rectangular sheets, of any size, other than paper of heading 4801 or 4803; hand-made paper and paperboard) of chapter 48 (Paper and paperboard; articles of paper pulp, of paper or of paperboard).
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 January 2026 and May 2026, NBR recorded commercial imports under 48026100 in 5 of 6 months, totalling 266,909 kg at an assessable value of BDT 48,579,565. That is an average of BDT 182 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 1,677th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.
| Month | Net weight | Assessable value | Per kg |
|---|---|---|---|
| January 2026 | 50,712 kg | BDT 10,603,191 | BDT 209 |
| February 2026 | 52,382 kg | BDT 11,109,193 | BDT 212 |
| March 2026 | 55,069 kg | BDT 11,434,597 | BDT 208 |
| April 2026 | 48,453 kg | BDT 7,196,210 | BDT 149 |

Bonded imports. A further 27,162 kg worth BDT 3,813,175 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 7.3% of the total value imported under this code, the rest entering commercially.

How this line compares
Chapter 48 contains 126 tariff lines, averaging 67.51%. At 64.25%, 48026100 sits below that average by 3.26 percentage points. It is the 17th 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.
Within heading 4802 alone, rates run from 39.75% to 80.18% across 12 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.
