HS Code 61099000
T-Shirts, Singlets, Etc, Of Other Textiles, Nes, Knitted Or Crocheted
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 61099000 would be approximately BDT 104,060.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 104.06% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
T-Shirts, Singlets, Etc, Of Other Textiles, Nes, Knitted Or Crocheted is classified under HS code 61099000, which sits in heading 6109 (T-shirts, singlets and other vests; 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 30%, 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 104.06%, 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 61099000 in 6 of 6 months, totalling 416,557 kg at an assessable value of BDT 301,001,391. That is an average of BDT 723 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 1,512th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.

Bonded imports. A further 310 kg worth BDT 992,414 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 0.3% of the total value imported under this code, the rest entering commercially.

How this line compares
Chapter 61 contains 107 tariff lines, averaging 100.43%. At 104.06%, 61099000 sits above that average by 3.63 percentage points. It is the 6th 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 42.98 points.
This line carries supplementary duty of 30%. 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.
