High-Purity Liquefied Propane LPG
Liquefied petroleum gas consisting of propane with at least 90% purity by liquid volume, used primarily as a fuel for industrial and residential heating. This product is classified under HTS 2711.12.00.10 due to its high propane content and liquefied state for storage and transport. It meets the specific purity requirement outlined in the tariff schedule for this subheading.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If purity below 90% liquid volume percent
Lower purity propane falls under the broader propane subheading without the high-purity specification.
If primarily butanes rather than propane
Butane-dominated liquefied gases are classified separately based on principal hydrocarbon composition.
If further refined into ethylene or propylene
Derivatives like unsaturated acyclic hydrocarbons from propane cracking move to Chapter 29 for petrochemicals.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify propane purity through certified lab analysis (ASTM D2163 method) to confirm minimum 90% liquid volume percent before import declaration
• Ensure compliance with DOT regulations for liquefied gas cylinders and tanks; include Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) in entry documentation
• Avoid misclassification by specifying exact composition on commercial invoice; common pitfall is declaring as general LPG without purity breakdown
