Import Tips
• 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
