HS Code 95083000
Fairground amusements
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 95083000 would be approximately BDT 64,250.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 64.25% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Fairground amusements is classified under HS code 95083000, which sits in heading 9508 (Travelling circuses and travelling menageries, amusement park rides and water park amusements, fairground amusements, including shooting galleries and travelling theatres) of chapter 95 (Toys, games and sports requisites; parts and accessories thereof).
Under the Bangladesh Operative Tariff 2026-2027 this line attracts Customs Duty of 25%, Supplementary Duty of 0%, 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 64.25%, 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 95083000 in 4 of 6 months, totalling 6,536 kg at an assessable value of BDT 2,193,453. That is an average of BDT 336 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 2,757th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.

How this line compares
Chapter 95 contains 40 tariff lines, averaging 56.62%. At 64.25%, 95083000 sits above that average by 7.63 percentage points. It is the 5th 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 3.17 points.
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.
