HS Code 55102000
Yarn, Artificial Staple Fibres, Mixed With Wool..., Nprs
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 55102000 would be approximately BDT 39,750.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 39.75% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Yarn, Artificial Staple Fibres, Mixed With Wool..., Nprs is classified under HS code 55102000, which sits in heading 5510 (Yarn (other than sewing thread) of artificial staple fibres, not put up for retail sale) of chapter 55 (Man-made staple fibres).
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.
Recorded imports
Between March 2026 and May 2026, NBR recorded commercial imports under 55102000 in 2 of 6 months, totalling 76,151 kg at an assessable value of BDT 12,360,510. That is an average of BDT 162 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 1,804th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.
| Month | Net weight | Assessable value | Per kg |
|---|---|---|---|
| March 2026 | 36,433 kg | BDT 5,928,759 | BDT 163 |
| May 2026 | 39,718 kg | BDT 6,431,751 | BDT 162 |
Bonded imports. A further 44,137 kg worth BDT 33,845,943 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 73.2% of the total value imported under this code, the rest entering commercially.
