What these figures mean
Stoppers, caps and lids.. excl.Crown corks nes, is classified under HS code 83099099, which sits in heading 8309 (Stoppers, caps, lids (including crown corks, screw caps, pouring stoppers); capsules for bottles, threaded bungs, bung covers, seals and other packaging accessories, of base metal) of chapter 83 (Miscellaneous articles of base metal).
Under the Bangladesh Operative Tariff 2026-2027 this line attracts Customs Duty of 25%, Supplementary Duty of 45%, VAT of 15%, Advance Income Tax of 5%, Regulatory Duty of 5% and Advance Tax of 7.5%. Combined, these produce a Total Tax Incidence of 135.91%, 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 83099099 in 6 of 6 months, totalling 131,072 kg at an assessable value of BDT 68,545,795. That is an average of BDT 523 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 1,247th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.

Bonded imports. A further 286,218 kg worth BDT 253,481,855 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.

How this line compares
Chapter 83 contains 45 tariff lines, averaging 68.65%. At 135.91%, 83099099 sits above that average by 67.26 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 dearer than the typical import by 74.83 points.
Within heading 8309 alone, rates run from 33.63% to 135.91% across 6 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.
This line carries supplementary duty of 45%. Only 1,633 of 7,469 lines carry any SD at all, and because it is charged after customs and regulatory duty, and VAT is then charged on top of it, it affects the total far more than the rate alone suggests.
