HS Code 80030000
Tin bars, rods, profiles and wire
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 80030000 would be approximately BDT 39,750.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 39.75% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Tin bars, rods, profiles and wire is classified under HS code 80030000, which sits in heading 8003 (Tin; bars, rods, profiles and wire) of chapter 80 (Tin and articles thereof).
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 April 2026, NBR recorded commercial imports under 80030000 in 3 of 6 months, totalling 891 kg at an assessable value of BDT 248,567. That is an average of BDT 279 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In April 2026 it was the 3,610th largest of 4,161 tariff lines by assessable value.
| Month | Net weight | Assessable value | Per kg |
|---|---|---|---|
| December 2025 | 440 kg | BDT 149,899 | BDT 341 |
| March 2026 | 51 kg | BDT 49,571 | BDT 972 |
| April 2026 | 400 kg | BDT 49,097 | BDT 123 |
Bonded imports. A further 678 kg worth BDT 255,065 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 50.6% of the total value imported under this code, the rest entering commercially.

How this line compares
Chapter 80 contains 7 tariff lines, averaging 35.55%. At 39.75%, 80030000 sits above that average by 4.2 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 21.33 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.
