HS Code 94059900
Parts, NES
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 94059900 would be approximately BDT 135,910.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 135.91% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Parts, NES is classified under HS code 94059900, which sits in heading 9405 (Luminaires and light fittings; including searchlights, spotlights and parts thereof, n.e.c.; illuminated signs, name-plates and the like, having permanently fixed light source and parts thereof n.e.c. or included) 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 25%, Supplementary Duty of 45%, VAT of 15%, Advance Income Tax of 5%, Regulatory Duty of 5% and Advance Tax of 7.5%. Combined, these produce a Total Tax Incidence of 135.91%, 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 94059900 in 6 of 6 months, totalling 845,525 kg at an assessable value of BDT 361,642,010. That is an average of BDT 428 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 663rd largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.

Bonded imports. A further 52 kg worth BDT 12,695,837 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 3.4% of the total value imported under this code, the rest entering commercially.

How this line compares
Chapter 94 contains 66 tariff lines, averaging 95.36%. At 135.91%, 94059900 sits above that average by 40.55 percentage points. It is the 3rd most heavily taxed line in the chapter.
Across the whole Operative Tariff the mean is 61.08%, so this line is dearer than the typical import by 74.83 points.
Within heading 9405 alone, rates run from 17.88% to 159.8% across 19 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.
This line carries supplementary duty of 45%. Only 1,633 of 7,469 lines carry any SD at all, and because it is charged after customs and regulatory duty, and VAT is then charged on top of it, it affects the total far more than the rate alone suggests.
