Alternative Classifications

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

2711.12.00Same rate: 25%

If liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) mixture of propane and butanes

LPG mixtures primarily of propane-butanes fall under 2711.12 when in gaseous state, distinguished by specific hydrocarbon blend.

2711.13.00Same rate: 25%

If butanes-dominant mixture

Shifts to butanes subheading if composition exceeds propane thresholds, based on petroleum gas specifications.

2901.10.30Higher: 35% vs 25%

If high-purity ethylene gas for chemical synthesis

Pure acyclic hydrocarbons like ethylene classify under Chapter 29 when not considered general petroleum gases.

Import Tips & Compliance

β€’ Verify gas composition via lab analysis to confirm it qualifies as 'other' under 2711.29, avoiding misclassification as propane-butanes mixtures (2711.13)

β€’ Ensure proper documentation of gaseous state at import (e.g

β€’ pressure specs) and comply with DOT hazardous materials regulations for transport
