Import Tips
• Provide ASTM D975 specification sheets confirming grade and sulfur limits during customs clearance
• Label containers clearly as 'Light Fuel Oil - ULSD' to prevent confusion with marine or off-road fuels
• Monitor for seasonal blending; pure distillates must not include residual components
