HS Code 72192400
Hot-Rolled Stainless Steel, Uncoiled, >=600mm By <3mm
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 72192400 would be approximately BDT 39,750.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 39.75% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Hot-Rolled Stainless Steel, Uncoiled, >=600mm By <3mm is classified under HS code 72192400, which sits in heading 7219 (Stainless steel; flat-rolled products of width of 600mm or more) of chapter 72 (Iron and steel).
Under the Bangladesh Operative Tariff 2026-2027 this line attracts Customs Duty of 10%, Supplementary Duty of 0%, 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 39.75%, 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 April 2026, NBR recorded commercial imports under 72192400 in 4 of 6 months, totalling 231,738 kg at an assessable value of BDT 31,383,028. That is an average of BDT 135 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In April 2026 it was the 1,332nd largest of 4,161 tariff lines by assessable value.
| Month | Net weight | Assessable value | Per kg |
|---|---|---|---|
| December 2025 | 84,340 kg | BDT 12,284,654 | BDT 146 |
| January 2026 | 1,359 kg | BDT 512,156 | BDT 377 |
| March 2026 | 2,339 kg | BDT 340,471 | BDT 146 |
| April 2026 | 143,700 kg | BDT 18,245,747 | BDT 127 |
Bonded imports. A further 20,706 kg worth BDT 7,904,496 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 20.1% of the total value imported under this code, the rest entering commercially.

How this line compares
Chapter 72 contains 188 tariff lines, averaging 51.03%. At 39.75%, 72192400 sits below that average by 11.28 percentage points. It is the 76th most heavily taxed line in the chapter.
Across the whole Operative Tariff the mean is 61.08%, so this line is cheaper than the typical import by 21.33 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.
