HS Code 51021100
FINE ANIMAL HAIR,OF KASHMIR (CASHMERE) GOATS NES
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 51021100 would be approximately BDT 10,000.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 10% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
FINE ANIMAL HAIR,OF KASHMIR (CASHMERE) GOATS NES is classified under HS code 51021100, which sits in heading 5102 (Fine or coarse animal hair, not carded or combed) of chapter 51 (Wool, fine or coarse animal hair; horsehair yarn and woven fabric).
Under the Bangladesh Operative Tariff 2026-2027 this line attracts Customs Duty of 5%, Supplementary Duty of 0%, VAT of 0%, Advance Income Tax of 5%, Regulatory Duty of 0% and Advance Tax of 0%. Combined, these produce a Total Tax Incidence of 10%, 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 March 2026 and March 2026, NBR recorded commercial imports under 51021100 in 1 of 6 months, totalling 1 kg at an assessable value of BDT 31,541. That is an average of BDT 31,541 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In March 2026 it was the 3,653rd largest of 4,054 tariff lines by assessable value.
| Month | Net weight | Assessable value | Per kg |

Bonded imports. A further 34,380 kg worth BDT 472,072,691 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. That is over 99.9% of everything imported under this code. In practice this line is an export input rather than a product entering the domestic market, so the duty rates above apply to only a small fraction of the trade.

How this line compares
Chapter 51 contains 38 tariff lines, averaging 36.9%. At 10%, 51021100 sits below that average by 26.9 percentage points. It is the 30th most heavily taxed line in the chapter.
Across the whole Operative Tariff the mean is 61.08%, so this line is cheaper than the typical import by 51.08 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.
