HS Code 82029910
Hand saws; blades for saws of all kinds....Toothless saw blades
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 82029910 would be approximately BDT 39,750.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 39.75% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Hand saws; blades for saws of all kinds....Toothless saw blades is classified under HS code 82029910, which sits in heading 8202 (Tools, hand; saws and blades for saws of all kinds (including slitting, slotting or toothless saw blades)) of chapter 82 (Tools, implements, cutlery, spoons and forks, of base metal).
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 May 2026, NBR recorded commercial imports under 82029910 in 6 of 6 months, totalling 345,711 kg at an assessable value of BDT 52,977,047. That is an average of BDT 153 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 1,601st largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.

Bonded imports. A further 93 kg worth BDT 122,397 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 0.2% of the total value imported under this code, the rest entering commercially.

How this line compares
Chapter 82 contains 69 tariff lines, averaging 47.78%. At 39.75%, 82029910 sits below that average by 8.03 percentage points. It is the 28th 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.
Within heading 8202 alone, rates run from 33.63% to 64.25% across 8 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.
