Duty & tariff treatment for Bangladesh

Sri Lanka and Bangladesh are both members of the South Asian Free Trade Area (SAFTA) (and APTA), giving tariff concessions on covered products. Sensitive items sit on a negative list, and as Bangladesh produces its own tea, confirm whether your product is eligible.

SAFTA preference requires a SAFTA Certificate of Origin meeting the agreement’s value-addition and consignment rules.

Always confirm the current rate. Tariffs and preference schemes change. Check your exact HS line in the Bangladesh Customs (NBR), and estimate duty + freight + insurance together with our حاسبة التكلفة الإجمالية. We don’t publish line-item tariff figures because they move and depend on your precise product and origin proof.
