Heavy Coal Tar Oil
Heavy coal tar oil is the higher boiling fraction from coal tar distillation used in road tars and electrode binders, with aromatics dominating. HTS 2707.99.90 covers this as unspecified coal tar product beyond light oil subheadings.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Distillation curve (ASTM D86) documentation proves high-boiling coal tar origin
• Check flash point >60°C for proper IMDG Class 3 hazardous declaration
• Avoid bulk petroleum oil confusion with specific gravity certificates
Related Products under HTS 2707.99.90
Creosote Oil
Creosote oil is a dark, oily liquid obtained from the distillation of coal tar, primarily used for wood preservation in railroad ties and utility poles. It falls under HTS 2707.99.90 as it is derived from high temperature coal tar distillation and contains aromatic constituents exceeding nonaromatic ones. This classification applies to industrial-grade creosote not meeting specific subheadings like benzol or naphtha.
Coal Tar Pitch
Coal tar pitch is the heavy residue from coal tar distillation, rich in aromatics, used in aluminum smelting anodes and roofing materials. Classified under HTS 2707.99.90 as 'other' products where aromatic constituents predominate. It does not qualify for specific subheadings like 2707.10-2707.40.
Phenolic Oil from Coal Tar
Phenolic oil is a coal tar distillate containing phenols like cresols and xylenols, used in resins and disinfectants, but under 50% single component. It fits HTS 2707.99.90 due to predominant aromatic content from coal tar without meeting >50% thresholds for named subheadings.
Anthracene Oil
Anthracene oil is a middle distillate from coal tar rich in anthracene and phenanthrene, used for dye intermediates, but <50% naphthalene. Classified in HTS 2707.99.90 as other aromatic-rich coal tar product not fitting specific aromatic subheadings.
Carbolic Oil
Carbolic oil from coal tar distillation contains mixed phenols for plasticizer and herbicide production, classified under HTS 2707.99.90 as other coal tar oils with excess aromatics. It lacks purity for Chapter 29 or concentration for phenolic subheadings.
Naphthalene Oil (Low Grade)
Low-grade naphthalene oil from coal tar contains 20-40% naphthalene for mothballs and dyes when purified, but bulk classified as other. HTS 2707.99.90 applies since it doesn't exceed 50% naphthalene threshold.
