On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 61059000 would be approximately BDT 119,380.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 119.38% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Men'S Or Boys' Shirts Of Other Textiles, Nes, Knitted Or Crocheted is classified under HS code 61059000, which sits in heading 6105 (Shirts; men's or boys', knitted or crocheted) of chapter 61 (Articles of apparel and clothing accessories, knitted or crocheted).
Under the Bangladesh Operative Tariff 2026-2027 this line attracts Customs Duty of 25%, Supplementary Duty of 40%, 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 119.38%, 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.

That is an average of BDT 1,062 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 2,647th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.

How this line compares
Chapter 61 contains 107 tariff lines, averaging 100.43%. At 119.38%, 61059000 sits above that average by 18.95 percentage points. 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 58.3 points.
Within heading 6105 alone, rates run from 104.06% to 119.38% across 3 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 40%. 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.
