HS Code 76042900
Bars, rods and profiles of aluminium alloys
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 76042900 would be approximately BDT 45,880.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 45.88% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Bars, rods and profiles of aluminium alloys is classified under HS code 76042900, which sits in heading 7604 (Aluminium; bars, rods and profiles) of chapter 76 (Aluminium 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 May 2026, NBR recorded commercial imports under 76042900 in 6 of 6 months, totalling 939,821 kg at an assessable value of BDT 414,877,613. That is an average of BDT 441 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 1,026th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.

Bonded imports. A further 254,743 kg worth BDT 183,718,783 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 30.7% of the total value imported under this code, the rest entering commercially.

How this line compares
Chapter 76 contains 42 tariff lines, averaging 51.74%. At 45.88%, 76042900 sits below that average by 5.86 percentage points. It is the 15th 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.
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.
