How Bangladesh National Board of Revenue (NBR) tariffs and import regulations work, and how GoXpi ensures 100% legal clearance with zero surprise fees.
Importing personal or commercial goods from overseas into Bangladesh involves classification under the 8-digit Harmonized System (HS) code determined by the National Board of Revenue (NBR). Typically, individuals face complicated assessment procedures, tax deposit challenges, and clearance delays at airport customs depots.
With GoXpi, our automated system maps product categories to standard NBR HS codes to calculate an estimated duty at checkout. Our licensed C&F clearing agents handle the official documentation, customs declaration, and delivery straight to your doorstep.
Standard basic customs duty assessed on the assessable value (CIF basis) of the imported good. Ranges from 0% (ICT and raw computers) up to 25% for luxury items.
Additional duty imposed on selected commodities, generally between 3% and 20% on the assessable base value.
Imposed on non-essential, luxury, or domestically substituted products, ranging from 10% to 150% depending on the specific statutory SRO.
Bangladesh standard 15% VAT, along with 5% Advance Income Tax (AIT) and 5% Advance Tax (AT), calculated systematically over the compounded assessable base.
