Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If classified as propane due to mixture ratios
Propane mixtures may shift to 2711.12 if they don't qualify as 'other' under specific volatility tests.
If polymer-grade purity >99%
Refined propylene for polymerization is classified under Chapter 29 as cyclic/acyclic olefins.
If blended with chemical preparations
Mixtures with additives for specific industrial uses fall under prepared chemical products.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Obtain lab analysis confirming propylene purity >90% to avoid reclassification as a mixture
• Declare exact volume in barrels (158.98 liters at 15.6°C) per US note for accurate duty calculation
• Include end-use certificates if destined for chemical manufacturing to qualify for potential duty reductions
