HS Code 94029010
Hospital Beds
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 94029010 would be approximately BDT 17,880.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 17.88% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Hospital Beds is classified under HS code 94029010, which sits in heading 9402 (Furniture; medical, surgical, dental or veterinary (e.g. operating tables, hospital beds, dentists' chairs) barbers' chairs; parts) of chapter 94 (Furniture; bedding, mattresses, cushions; luminaires and lighting fittings; illuminated signs; prefabricated buildings).
Under the Bangladesh Operative Tariff 2026-2027 this line attracts Customs Duty of 5%, Supplementary Duty of 0%, VAT of 0%, Advance Income Tax of 5%, Regulatory Duty of 0% and Advance Tax of 7.5%. Combined, these produce a Total Tax Incidence of 17.88%, 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 94029010 in 6 of 6 months, totalling 368,988 kg at an assessable value of BDT 160,648,518. That is an average of BDT 435 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 1,450th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.

How this line compares
Chapter 94 contains 66 tariff lines, averaging 95.36%. At 17.88%, 94029010 sits below that average by 77.48 percentage points. It is the 65th 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 43.2 points.
Within heading 9402 alone, rates run from 17.88% to 39.75% across 3 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.
