Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If testing <25 degrees A.P.I.
Heavier residual components change gravity classification within No. 4 oils.
If not qualifying as distillate/residual fuel oil
Other petroleum preparations ≥70% oil but lacking fuel oil specs go to catch-all 2710.19.90.
If primarily crude oil derived without refining to fuel specs
Minimally processed bituminous mineral oils remain under crude preparations in 2709.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Label containers with exact sulfur, viscosity, and A.P.I. per ASTM standards; mismatches lead to penalties
• Obtain prior notice via ACE for bulk liquid fuels; prepare bill of lading specifying HTS and volume in barrels
