In the name of helping protect the country’s ceramics industry, the Bangladesh Ceramic Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BCMEA) urged the government to impose additional tariffs on ceramic imports to discourage the import of expensive goods from abroad. 七月, the association submitted a request to the Bangladesh National Board of Revenue (丁腈橡膠) 在這方面, seeking a quick introduction of the measure.

根據BCMEA, Bangladesh has established 70 陶瓷餐具, tile and sanitary ware manufacturers with domestic and foreign investments of more than Tk140 billion. According to the association, 行業滿足 85 percent of the domestic demand for such household items.

According to BCMEA sources, the annual value of imports of finished tiles, tableware and sanitary ware exceeds Tk 13.46 十億, completely monopolizing the local market. 在此背景下, BCMEA建議提高最低關稅值, 包括附加費, to curb the import of foreign ceramic goods and ease the pressure on foreign exchange.

If the proposal is accepted, hard-earned foreign exchange will be saved, 它補充說. According to the association, the market size of ceramic products within Bangladesh is estimated at Tk 3,500 crore in 2019.

The Export Promotion Bureau revealed that the sector earned $68.97 million by exporting such products in the 2018-19 財政年度. Manufacturers sell ceramic products to countries including the UK, 美國, 加拿大及其他歐洲和拉丁美洲國家.
