HS Code 57021000
Kelem, Schumacks, Karamanie And Other Similar Hand-Woven Rugs
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 57021000 would be approximately BDT 96,100.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 96.1% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Kelem, Schumacks, Karamanie And Other Similar Hand-Woven Rugs is classified under HS code 57021000, which sits in heading 5702 (Carpets and other textile floor coverings; woven, (not tufted or flocked), whether or not made up, including kelem, schumacks, karamanie and similar hand-woven rugs) of chapter 57 (Carpets and other textile floor coverings).
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 5% and Advance Tax of 7.5%. Combined, these produce a Total Tax Incidence of 96.1%, 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 May 2026 and May 2026, NBR recorded commercial imports under 57021000 in 1 of 6 months, totalling 1 kg at an assessable value of BDT 2,980. That is an average of BDT 2,980 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 3,890th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.

How this line compares
Chapter 57 contains 24 tariff lines, averaging 96.1%. At 96.1%, 57021000 sits almost exactly at that average. 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 35.02 points.
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.
