Import Tips
• Provide lab analysis confirming >70% petroleum oil content and absence of biodiesel to prevent misclassification
• Document API CJ-4/FA-4 ratings and OEM approvals (e.g
• Cummins, Volvo) for customs validation of engine-specific use
• Watch for volumetric packaging limits; bulk imports over 158.98L barrels may trigger different entry procedures
