What these figures mean
Shawls,Scarves,Mufflers,Mantillas,Veils & The Like Of Artificial Fibre is classified under HS code 62144000, which sits in heading 6214 (Shawls, scarves, mufflers, mantillas, veils and the like (not knitted or crocheted)) of chapter 62 (Articles of apparel and clothing accessories, not 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.

How this line compares
Chapter 62 contains 104 tariff lines, averaging 103.48%. At 119.38%, 62144000 sits above that average by 15.9 percentage points. It is the 10th 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.
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.
