Import Tips
• Verify petroleum oil content exceeds 70% by weight via lab testing to confirm basic constituent status
• Provide detailed technical data sheets showing it's a lubricating oil without biodiesel for proper entry
• Avoid common pitfalls like classifying as hydraulic fluid (2710.19.10) if primarily for engine use
