Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If for non-jet turbine applications
Light oils for stationary turbines fall outside motor fuel (transport) scope.
If >50% benzene content
Benzol-rich naphthas meeting subheading 2707.10 threshold shift to coal tar distillates.
If reformulated as automobile gasoline
Naphtha redirected to road vehicle motor spirit classified separately.
