Liquefied Propane Gas (LPG)
Liquefied propane gas is a flammable hydrocarbon gas stored under pressure as a liquid, primarily used for heating, cooking, and as a vehicle fuel. It falls under HTS 2711.19.00 as 'other' liquefied petroleum gases, distinct from natural gas or specific named gases like ethylene.

This product may fall under a more specific subheading:
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If primarily butane or butane-propane mixtures
Butane-rich LPG mixtures are classified separately under liquefied butanes, changing the heading based on principal component.
If saturated acyclic hydrocarbons like pure ethane dominate
Pure or high-purity acyclic hydrocarbons shift to Chapter 29 for specific chemicals, not general petroleum gases.
If imported as electrical energy equivalent via grid transmission
Gaseous energy in non-physical form may fall under electrical energy provisions, exempt from standard entry requirements.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify the gas composition via lab analysis to confirm it meets 'other' LPG criteria under 2711.19.00, avoiding misclassification as natural gas
• Obtain safety data sheets (SDS) and ensure DOT-compliant cylinders or tanks for transport
• Check for country-specific quotas or energy import licenses, as LPG may face supply restrictions
