Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If separated into mixed isomers with high purity
Purified mixed xylenes (not from tar distillation) are dicyclic hydrocarbons in Chapter 29.
If derived from petroleum, not coal tar
Petroleum-based xylenes fall under medium oils heading 2710.19 if distillation profile matches.
If lubricating preparations containing xylenes
Xylene as base for lubes or greases reclassifies to Chapter 34.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Use ISO 3405 distillation test if purity questioned; maintain records to prove not 'light oils' under 2710.12
• Label containers with flash point and UN number (UN1307) for hazmat compliance during import
