Import Tips
• Submit wellhead separation reports confirming natural gas derivation and API test results to CBP for smooth entry
• Avoid common pitfall of commingling with crude oil in transport, which requires segregation proof for this specific subheading
• Track barrel measurements precisely per chapter note (158.98L at 15.6°C) for accurate duty calculation on volume
