Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If purity 95% or higher
Higher purity butanes shift to subheading 2711.13 for more refined commercial-grade butane gas.
If processed into propellant for retail aerosols
Butane reformulated as a finished aerosol propellant falls under Chapter 36 for propellants.
If sold in liquid state rather than gaseous
Liquefied petroleum gases like butane mixtures are classified separately under 2711.19.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify purity certification via lab analysis reports meeting the 90-94% liquid volume threshold to avoid reclassification
• Ensure cylinders comply with DOT pressure vessel regulations and include proper UN hazmat labeling for gaseous fuels
• Declare exact volume and purity on entry documents; common pitfall is misstating as higher purity butane
