HS Code 56050010
Metalized round yarn
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 56050010 would be approximately BDT 88,750.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 88.75% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Metalized round yarn is classified under HS code 56050010, which sits in heading 5605 (Yarn; metallised, whether or not gimped, of textile yarn, or strip or the like of heading no. 5404 or 5405, combined with metal in the form of thread, strip or powder or covered with metal) 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 20%, 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 88.75%, 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 April 2026 and April 2026, NBR recorded commercial imports under 56050010 in 1 of 6 months, totalling 4 kg at an assessable value of BDT 3,069. That is an average of BDT 767 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In April 2026 it was the 3,990th largest of 4,161 tariff lines by assessable value.
| Month | Net weight | Assessable value | Per kg |
|---|---|---|---|
| April 2026 | 4 kg | BDT 3,069 | BDT 767 |
Bonded imports. A further 923,907 kg worth BDT 288,523,551 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 56 contains 39 tariff lines, averaging 68.21%. At 88.75%, 56050010 sits above that average by 20.54 percentage points. It is the 2nd 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 27.67 points.
Within heading 5605 alone, rates run from 64.25% to 88.75% across 2 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.
This line carries supplementary duty of 20%. 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.
