Alternative Classifications

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

2711.12.00Same rate: 25%

If propane <50% threshold

Higher propane mixtures may qualify under propane-specific subheading.

3824Lower: 15% vs 25%

If prepared as refrigerant blend with additives

Chemical preparations for specific non-fuel uses shift to Chapter 38.

2901.10.30Higher: 35% vs 25%

If separated saturated hydrocarbons

Individual alkane separation moves to acyclic hydrocarbons classification.

Import Tips & Compliance

β€’ Detail exact percentage blend on commercial invoice to prevent misclassification as butane

β€’ Include REACH or TSCA compliance docs if containing ozone-depleting potential

β€’ Avoid common pitfall of declaring as 'R-290' refrigerant name instead of chemical composition
