Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 54083400 would be approximately BDT 80,180.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 80.18% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Printed Woven Fabrics Of Artificial Filament Yarn, Nes is classified under HS code 54083400, which sits in heading 5408 (Woven fabrics of artificial filament yarn including woven fabrics obtained from materials of heading no. 5404) of chapter 54 (Man-made filaments; strip and the like of man-made textile materials).
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 February 2026 and February 2026, NBR recorded commercial imports under 54083400 in 1 of 6 months, totalling 18 kg at an assessable value of BDT 123,147.

In February 2026 it was the 3,424th largest of 4,051 tariff lines by assessable value.
| Month | Net weight | Assessable value | Per kg |

Bonded imports. A further 30,354 kg worth BDT 30,154,314 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 99.6% 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 54 contains 73 tariff lines, averaging 53.5%. At 80.18%, 54083400 sits above that average by 26.68 percentage points. It is the 1st 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.
