Source: Bangladesh Bank, Annual Import Payments of Goods and Services 2024–25, Table 3.6, printed pages 1205–1207. These reported payments can differ from customs-recorded merchandise trade because of timing, valuation and coverage.
Important report notes: EPZ banking payments are assigned to individual countries from FY 2021–22; specified unclassified FDI-related goods are included by country; government-project and Rooppur project imports enter the country series from FY 2024–25. Coverage changes can affect comparisons, so no like-for-like growth claim is calculated here.
The comparison covers selected markets with guides, not every supplier country. Bars compare displayed values, not shares of Bangladesh's imports. Figures are not sales forecasts or investment returns; company metrics elsewhere can use different periods and measures.
Source checked 3 November 2026. Figures are a dated annual snapshot, not a live feed or a claim of the latest available observation. The PDF is a large official report; download on a suitable connection if needed.

Some source columns contain amounts without a confirmed percentage basis; those are flagged instead of being presented as percentages.

These are reference rates, not a landed-cost quote. Valuation, specific duties, SROs, origin, exemptions and the importing regime can change the applicable treatment. No duty calculator is applied here.
All published import rows. Up to 24 month/regime observations are shown. IM4 commercial and IM7 bonded figures remain separate.
No published import observations match this selection. Missing observations mean unavailable data here, not zero imports.
