Column 2 rates apply to products from Cuba, North Korea, Belarus, and Russia. When no special rate exists for a classification, General rates apply.

Overview

This HTS category, 2710.20.15.00, specifically classifies "kerosene-type jet fuel, motor fuel or motor fuel blending stock." These are petroleum-derived oils that have undergone distillation and are intended for use as fuel in jet engines or as components in the formulation of motor fuels. The classification hinges on the product's specific end-use and its composition, distinguishing it from other refined petroleum products.

Crucially, this category is differentiated from its sibling, 2710.20.25.00, which covers "kerosene (except kerosene-type jet fuel, motor fuel or motor fuel blending stock)." Therefore, while both are kerosene distillates, the distinction lies in the intended application: 2710.20.15.00 is for high-performance fuels like jet fuel and motor fuel components, whereas the sibling category encompasses broader kerosene uses not for these specific applications.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories within 2710.20.15.00. Classification within this code is therefore definitive based on the product meeting the description of kerosene-type jet fuel, motor fuel, or a blending stock for such fuels. This designation relies on established technical specifications and industry standards for these particular fuel types.
