HS Code 58109100
Cotton Embroidery, In The Piece, In Strips Or In Motifs
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 58109100 would be approximately BDT 64,250.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 64.25% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Cotton Embroidery, In The Piece, In Strips Or In Motifs is classified under HS code 58109100, which sits in heading 5810 (Embroidery; in the piece, in strips or in motifs) of chapter 58 (Special woven fabrics; tufted textile fabrics; lace; tapestries; trimmings; embroidery).
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 58109100 in 6 of 6 months, totalling 3,567 kg at an assessable value of BDT 1,759,756. That is an average of BDT 493 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 3,850th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.
| Month | Net weight | Assessable value | Per kg |
|---|---|---|---|

Bonded imports. A further 458,345 kg worth BDT 978,098,049 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 99.8% 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 58 contains 37 tariff lines, averaging 71.14%. At 64.25%, 58109100 sits below that average by 6.89 percentage points. It is the 17th 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.
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.
