HS Code 90222100
Apparatus Of Alpha, Beta Or Gamma Radiations For Medical... Uses
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 90222100 would be approximately BDT 28,730.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 28.73% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Apparatus Of Alpha, Beta Or Gamma Radiations For Medical... Uses is classified under HS code 90222100, which sits in heading 9022 (Apparatus based on the use of x-rays or of alpha, beta, gamma or other ionising radiations, whether or not for medical, surgical, dental or veterinary uses, including radiography or radiotherapy apparatus, x-ray tubes and other x-ray generators, high tens) of chapter 90 (Optical, photographic, measuring, checking, precision, medical or surgical instruments).
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 February 2026, NBR recorded commercial imports under 90222100 in 2 of 6 months, totalling 19,781 kg at an assessable value of BDT 810,280,477. That is an average of BDT 40,963 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In February 2026 it was the 248th largest of 4,051 tariff lines by assessable value.

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.
