HS Code 84849000
Sets Or Assortments Of Gaskets And Similar Joints
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 84849000 would be approximately BDT 28,730.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 28.73% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Sets Or Assortments Of Gaskets And Similar Joints is classified under HS code 84849000, which sits in heading 8484 (Gaskets and similar joints of metal sheeting combined with other material or of two or more layers of metal; sets or assortments of gaskets and similar joints, dissimilar in composition, put up in pouches, envelopes or similar packings; mechanical seals) 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
Between December 2025 and May 2026, NBR recorded commercial imports under 84849000 in 6 of 6 months, totalling 4,852 kg at an assessable value of BDT 101,074,113. That is an average of BDT 20,831 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 825th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.

Bonded imports. A further 158 kg worth BDT 6,160,193 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 5.7% of the total value imported under this code, the rest entering commercially.
