Operative Tariff Schedule (Full)
Executive Summary
The Operative Tariff Schedule is the live, web-searchable version of the Bangladesh Customs Tariff maintained at hub.bangladeshcustoms.gov.bd/operative-tariff. It is updated in real-time whenever NBR issues a new SRO (Statutory Regulatory Order) changing duty rates, exempting specific importers, or amending the prohibited/restricted list. The schedule contains 7,456 eight-digit tariff lines organised under 97 HS chapters. Each line shows: (a) HS code, (b) product description, (c) statutory customs duty (CD) rate, (d) supplementary duty (SD) rate, (e) value-added tax (VAT) rate, (f) advance income tax (AIT) rate, (g) advance trade tax (ATV) rate, (h) regulatory duty (RD) rate, (i) supplementary unit (kg, litre, piece etc.), (j) any specific exemptions via SRO references. The web portal offers two search modes: Import Search (by HS code, returns all applicable duties) and Export Search (by product description, returns export treatment). The PDF version is published annually (FY2025-26 edition dated 2 June 2025, 115 pages).
