Sub-classifications

Commodity Code
Description

Overview

HTS category 2710.19 encompasses "Other" petroleum oils and oils obtained from bituminous minerals, as well as related preparations. This classification serves as a residual category for products that do not fall under the more specific subheadings within the broader petroleum oils category. It includes oils and preparations where petroleum oils or oils from bituminous minerals are the primary constituent (70% or more by weight), excluding crude oils, biodiesel-containing mixtures, and waste oils.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 2710.12 (Light oils and preparations), by its inclusion of oils with characteristics not defined as "light." While light oils typically have lower boiling points and are used as fuels or solvents, the "Other" category captures a broader range of products that may have different physical properties, such as higher viscosity or specific performance characteristics.

Within 2710.19, further subcategories provide more granular classification. These include distillates and residual fuel oils, kerosene (excluding jet fuel), lubricating oils and greases, and a final "Other" tier for products that do not fit into the preceding specific subheadings. This hierarchical structure allows for precise identification based on the intended use, chemical composition, and physical properties of the product.
