HS Code 56013000
Textile Flock And Dust And Mill Neps
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 56013000 would be approximately BDT 64,250.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 64.25% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Textile Flock And Dust And Mill Neps is classified under HS code 56013000, which sits in heading 5601 (Wadding of textile materials and articles thereof; textile fibres, not exceeding 5 mm in length (flock), textile dust and mill neps) of chapter 56 (Wadding, felt and nonwovens; special yarns; twine, cordage, ropes and cables).
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 December 2025 and May 2026, NBR recorded commercial imports under 56013000 in 6 of 6 months, totalling 74,673 kg at an assessable value of BDT 33,360,980. That is an average of BDT 447 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 2,018th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.

Bonded imports. A further 79,564 kg worth BDT 31,914,735 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 48.9% of the total value imported under this code, the rest entering commercially.

How this line compares
Chapter 56 contains 39 tariff lines, averaging 68.21%. At 64.25%, 56013000 sits below that average by 3.96 percentage points. It is the 3rd 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 5601 alone, rates run from 64.25% to 542% across 4 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.
