Leaded Regular Gasoline
Leaded regular gasoline is a light oil motor fuel containing tetraethyllead as an anti-knock additive, with 90 percent or more distilling at 210°C per ISO 3405. It falls under HTS 2710.12.1510 due to its classification as leaded gasoline, a petroleum oil derived from bituminous minerals other than crude. Primarily used in older engines requiring lead for valve protection.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If unleaded
Unleaded gasoline falls under a separate subheading within the same motor fuel category, distinguished by absence of lead additives.
If not qualifying as light oil (less than 90% distilling at 210°C)
Motor fuels not meeting the light oil distillation test are classified under other gasoline subheadings in 2710.19.
If containing >50% aromatic hydrocarbons like toluene
High-aromatic content fuels may shift to Chapter 27 aromatic hydrocarbon headings if exceeding purity thresholds.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify lead content documentation and ensure compliance with EPA fuel regulations, as leaded gasoline is restricted in the US
• Provide certificates of analysis confirming 90%+ distillation at 210°C and >70% petroleum oils to avoid misclassification
• Avoid common pitfalls like incorrect labeling as unleaded; use specialized storage to prevent contamination during transit
