Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) Fuel
Ultra-low sulfur diesel is a light fuel oil refined from petroleum with sulfur content not exceeding 15 ppm, testing 25 degrees A.P.I. or more, and Saybolt Universal viscosity under 45 seconds at 37.8°C. It meets strict environmental regulations for on-road vehicle use and falls under HTS 2710.20.10.11 due to its biodiesel blending potential and precise fuel oil specifications.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If not containing biodiesel
Excludes biodiesel blends, shifting to general light fuel oils without biofuel component.
If testing under 25 degrees A.P.I.
Lower API gravity classifies it as heavier distillate fuel oil.
If biodiesel content dominates over 70% petroleum oils
Biodiesel-heavy preparations fall under rare chemical preparations rather than petroleum-based.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify sulfur content certification via ASTM D5453 testing to confirm ≤15 ppm compliance
• Ensure biodiesel blend documentation meets EPA renewable fuel standards for entry
• Avoid misclassification as jet fuel by confirming viscosity and API gravity specs
