HS Code 73141400
Woven Cloth Of Stainless Steel (Excl. Endless Bands For Machinery)
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 73141400 would be approximately BDT 28,730.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 28.73% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Woven Cloth Of Stainless Steel (Excl. Endless Bands For Machinery) is classified under HS code 73141400, which sits in heading 7314 (Cloth (including endless bands), grill, netting and fencing, of iron or steel wire; expanded metal of iron or steel) of chapter 73 (Articles of iron or steel).
Under the Bangladesh Operative Tariff 2026-2027 this line attracts Customs Duty of 1%, 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 28.73%, 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 73141400 in 6 of 6 months, totalling 119,599 kg at an assessable value of BDT 41,017,163. That is an average of BDT 343 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 1,715th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.

Bonded imports. A further 179 kg worth BDT 313,638 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 0.8% of the total value imported under this code, the rest entering commercially.

How this line compares
Chapter 73 contains 157 tariff lines, averaging 64.73%. At 28.73%, 73141400 sits below that average by 36 percentage points. It is the 154th 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 32.35 points.
Within heading 7314 alone, rates run from 28.73% to 64.25% across 10 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.
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.
