Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

2710.12.45Same rate: 25%

If premium light diesel fractions

Higher volatility diesels may qualify as light oils.

3826.00.10.00Higher: 39.6% vs 25%

If higher biodiesel concentration

Blends >70% biodiesel classify as fatty acid ester fuels.

2710.19.06Same rate: 25%

If pure petroleum diesel

Zero biodiesel content uses base petroleum diesel codes.
