Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel Fuel No. 2 from Canada
This is a refined petroleum distillate fuel oil classified as No. 2 diesel with sulfur content between 15 and 500 ppm, testing 25 degrees A.P.I. or more and having Saybolt Universal viscosity at 37.8°C of less than 45 seconds. It meets the specifications for light fuel oils used primarily in on-road diesel engines and falls under HTS 2710.19.11.03 due to its precise sulfur limits and physical properties distinguishing it from crude or higher sulfur fuels.

Import Tips
• Verify sulfur content via ISO 20846 or ASTM D5453 testing to confirm compliance with 15-500 ppm limit; non-compliance risks reclassification or penalties
• Include detailed certificates of analysis showing A.P.I. gravity, viscosity, and sulfur levels in entry documentation for CBP review
• Avoid common pitfalls like mislabeling as crude oil; ensure bills of lading specify refined distillate status
