HS Code 96062900
Oth. Buttons, Nes
Worked example
On an assessable value of BDT 100,000, the total duty and taxes payable on 96062900 would be approximately BDT 39,750.00, because the Total Tax Incidence is 39.75% of the assessable value.
What these figures mean
Oth. Buttons, Nes is classified under HS code 96062900, which sits in heading 9606 (Buttons, press-fasteners, snap-fasteners and press-studs, button moulds and other parts of these articles; button blanks) of chapter 96 (Miscellaneous manufactured articles).
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 96062900 in 6 of 6 months, totalling 529,437 kg at an assessable value of BDT 130,797,179. That is an average of BDT 247 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 1,626th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.

Bonded imports. A further 354,149 kg worth BDT 923,944,911 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 87.6% of the total value imported under this code, the rest entering commercially.

How this line compares
Chapter 96 contains 54 tariff lines, averaging 60.67%. At 39.75%, 96062900 sits below that average by 20.92 percentage points. It is the 40th 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.
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.
