HS Code 75081000
Cloth, Grill And Netting Of Nickel Wire
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 75081000 would be approximately BDT 45,880.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 45.88% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Cloth, Grill And Netting Of Nickel Wire is classified under HS code 75081000, which sits in heading 7508 (Nickel; articles thereof n.e.c. in chapter 75) 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.
Recorded imports
Between December 2025 and March 2026, NBR recorded commercial imports under 75081000 in 3 of 6 months, totalling 68 kg at an assessable value of BDT 584,078. That is an average of BDT 8,589 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In March 2026 it was the 3,500th largest of 4,054 tariff lines by assessable value.
| Month | Net weight | Assessable value | Per kg |
|---|---|---|---|
| December 2025 | 16 kg | BDT 245,493 | BDT 15,343 |
| February 2026 | 30 kg | BDT 261,672 | BDT 8,722 |
| March 2026 | 22 kg | BDT 76,913 | BDT 3,496 |
Bonded imports. A further 20 kg worth BDT 8,784 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 1.5% of the total value imported under this code, the rest entering commercially.

How this line compares
Chapter 75 contains 18 tariff lines, averaging 40.84%. At 45.88%, 75081000 sits above that average by 5.04 percentage points. It is the 1st 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 15.2 points.
Within heading 7508 alone, rates run from 28.73% to 45.88% across 3 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.
