HS Code 84752900
Machines For Manufacturing/Hot Working Glass/Glassware(Exc.Optical Fibres)
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 84752900 would be approximately BDT 28,730.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 28.73% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Machines For Manufacturing/Hot Working Glass/Glassware(Exc.Optical Fibres) is classified under HS code 84752900, which sits in heading 8475 (Machines; for assembling electric or electronic lamps, tubes, valves, flashbulbs, in glass envelopes, machines for manufacturing or hot working glass or glassware) of chapter 84 (Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery and mechanical appliances; parts thereof).
Under the Bangladesh Operative Tariff 2026-2027 this line attracts Customs Duty of 1%, 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 28.73%, 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

That is an average of BDT 457 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 315th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.
