TTI—

This line carries a specific duty. The published tariff gives no single Total Tax Incidence percentage for 98010053, because the duty is charged as a fixed amount per unit of quantity (for example Taka per metric tonne) rather than as a percentage of value. The figure marked † under CD is that amount, not a rate — the other columns on this line are genuine percentages. Confirm the unit of measurement and the current rate with NBR before calculating.

What these figures mean

Plasma, LCD, TFT, LED and similar technologis TV 37 inch to 42 inch is classified under HS code 98010053, which sits in heading 9801 (Not yet named) of chapter 98 (Special classification provisions (national)).

Under the Bangladesh Operative Tariff 2026-2027 this line attracts Customs Duty of 20000%, Supplementary Duty of 0%, VAT of 0%, Advance Income Tax of 5%, Regulatory Duty of 0% and Advance Tax of 7.5%.

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 98010053 in 5 of 6 months, totalling 240 kg at an assessable value of BDT 167,396. That is an average of BDT 697 per kilogram — useful as a rough check on whether a declared value looks plausible. In May 2026 it was the 3,445th largest of 4,066 tariff lines by assessable value.

How this line compares

This is one of 58 specific-duty lines in the 7,469-line tariff. They are concentrated in a few chapters — passenger baggage, steel, fertiliser and sugar — and are the only lines for which no Total Tax Incidence percentage can be published.

The ad-valorem lines in chapter 98 average 18.95%, but that figure cannot be compared with the amounts above, which are sums of money per unit rather than rates.
