HS Code 72193200
Cold-Rolled Stainless Steel, Uncoiled, >=600mm By 3-4.75mm
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 72193200 would be approximately BDT 39,750.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 39.75% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Cold-Rolled Stainless Steel, Uncoiled, >=600mm By 3-4.75mm is classified under HS code 72193200, 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 May 2026, NBR recorded commercial imports under 72193200 in 6 of 6 months, totalling 197,916 kg at an assessable value of BDT 30,915,596. That is an average of BDT 156 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 2,326th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.
