HS Code 75072000
Tubes Or Pipe Fittings Of Nickel
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 75072000 would be approximately BDT 45,880.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 45.88% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Tubes Or Pipe Fittings Of Nickel is classified under HS code 75072000, which sits in heading 7507 (Nickel; tubes, pipes and tube or pipe fittings (e.g. couplings, elbows, sleeves)) of chapter 75 (Nickel and articles thereof).
Under the Bangladesh Operative Tariff 2026-2027 this line attracts Customs Duty of 15%, 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 45.88%, 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.

That is an average of BDT 425 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 3,295th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.
