More Specific Codes
This product may fall under a more specific subheading:
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If under 25° A.P.I. and residual-heavy
Blends dominated by residual components with low A.P.I. use different fuel oil subs.
If waste or reprocessed oils
Any waste oil content pushes it to waste oils subheading.
If chemical preparations <70% oil
If additives exceed 30%, it may classify as a chemical good rather than petroleum-based.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Submit blending ratios and A.P.I. test results to justify basic petroleum constituent status
• Ensure sulfur content complies with MARPOL for marine fuels to avoid penalties
• Document as fuel, not lube base, to prevent misclassification

No. 2 Fuel Oil
No. 2 fuel oil is a distillate fuel oil derived from petroleum refining, used primarily for heating buildings and as a diesel engine fuel. It meets HTS 2710.19.11 criteria as it tests 25 degrees A.P.I. or more and contains over 70% petroleum oils as the basic constituent, excluding biodiesel and waste oils.
Home Heating Oil
Home heating oil, typically No. 2 grade, is a petroleum distillate used in residential furnaces for space heating. Classified under HTS 2710.19.11 due to its A.P.I. gravity of 25° or higher and composition exceeding 70% petroleum oils, distinct from crude or waste.
Diesel Fuel (Non-Road)
Off-road diesel fuel is a middle distillate petroleum product with A.P.I. gravity of 25° or more, used in construction equipment and generators. It qualifies for HTS 2710.19.11 as a distillate fuel oil not containing biodiesel and meeting the petroleum content threshold.
Industrial Boiler Fuel Oil
Industrial boiler fuel oil is a light distillate (≥25° A.P.I.) petroleum product for process heating in manufacturing. It falls under HTS 2710.19.11 as a non-crude preparation with petroleum oils as the basic ≥70% constituent.
