Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If not containing biodiesel
Non-biodiesel fuel oils use separate subheadings without the biodiesel provision.
If primarily biodiesel (>70%)
High biodiesel content may classify as prepared binders or chemical products.
If for residual rather than distillate fuels
Residual fuel oils have different API and viscosity profiles.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Certify biodiesel as mono-alkyl esters per chapter note; track blending ratios for 70% petroleum threshold; avoid contamination to prevent waste oil reclassification
Related Products under HTS 2710.20.10.08
No. 2 Fuel Oil High Sulfur
A distillate fuel oil classified as No. 2 fuel oil with a Saybolt Universal viscosity at 37.8°C of less than 45 seconds, testing 25 degrees A.P.I. or more, and containing more than 500 ppm sulfur. It falls under HTS 2710.20.10.08 due to its high sulfur content and specifications as a light fuel oil for heating and industrial combustion. Used primarily in boilers and furnaces where sulfur regulations are less stringent.
No. 3 Fuel Oil High Sulfur
A medium distillate fuel oil known as No. 3, with viscosity under 45 Saybolt Universal seconds at 37.8°C, API gravity of 25° or higher, and sulfur exceeding 500 ppm. Classified under HTS 2710.20.10.08 for its high-sulfur light fuel oil properties derived from petroleum refining. Commonly used in older industrial burners and marine applications.
High Sulfur Home Heating Oil No. 2
Distillate heating oil for residential furnaces, No. 2 grade with sulfur >500 ppm, light viscosity <45 seconds at 37.8°C, and API 25°+. Falls under HTS 2710.20.10.08 as a biodiesel-eligible high-sulfur preparation from petroleum. Used where ultra-low sulfur diesel is not mandated.
