HS Code 91069000
Other Apparatus For Indicating Time, Nes
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 91069000 would be approximately BDT 39,750.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 39.75% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Other Apparatus For Indicating Time, Nes is classified under HS code 91069000, which sits in heading 9106 (Time of day recording apparatus and apparatus for measuring, recording or otherwise indicating intervals of time, with clock, watch movement or synchronous motor) of chapter 91 (Clocks and watches and parts thereof).
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 91069000 in 6 of 6 months, totalling 7,729 kg at an assessable value of BDT 2,622,439. That is an average of BDT 339 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 2,692nd largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.
| Month | Net weight | Assessable value | Per kg |
|---|---|---|---|

| April 2026 | 307 kg | BDT 75,619 | BDT 246 |

Bonded imports. A further 9 kg worth BDT 161,710 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 5.8% of the total value imported under this code, the rest entering commercially.

How this line compares
Chapter 91 contains 61 tariff lines, averaging 37.56%. At 39.75%, 91069000 sits above that average by 2.19 percentage points. It is the 10th 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 9106 alone, rates run from 28.73% to 39.75% across 2 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.
