HTS heading 2713 is a broad product category for certain solid or residue materials left from petroleum processing or from oils obtained from bituminous minerals. It groups petroleum coke, petroleum bitumen, and other petroleum-oil residues under one 4-digit heading; it does not by itself identify the exact product or duty treatment.
To reach the correct 8-digit HTSUS code, first determine the material’s identity and physical form, then follow the heading’s subheadings and tariff descriptions. The more specific code may depend on whether the product is petroleum coke, petroleum bitumen, or another residue, and may further distinguish the product by type or other stated characteristics. Confirm the classification against the current HTSUS and, when the facts are unclear, seek a customs broker’s or classification professional’s advice.
What to check
- Identify the product’s actual composition, manufacturing origin, and physical form from technical documents and the supplier.
- Separate petroleum coke, petroleum bitumen, and other petroleum residues before reviewing the more specific subheadings.
- Read every subheading description and its legal notes; do not select an 8-digit code from a product name alone.
- Check whether the product has characteristics such as calcination, treatment, or another condition that the available subheadings distinguish.
- Keep specifications, safety data, laboratory information, and a written classification rationale to support the code if Customs asks.

How to find your code in this category
A heading is a product category. To get the exact duty, narrow from this 4-digit heading to a sub-category (usually by material), then open the 8-digit code that matches your product.
Open any code in the tables below to see its exact duty rate, a duty calculator (enter your shipment value → estimated duty and landed cost), the rate-change history chart, and the country-by-country breakdown (including Section 301/232 add-on duties).
Why you have to click in: a single category can contain products with very different duties. The rate depends on the specific product — its material and construction — and on the country of origin, and those only get pinned down at the 8-digit code level. That is why this page points you to codes instead of showing one rate for the whole category.

Petroleum coke, petroleum bitumen and other residues of petroleum oils or of oils obtained from bituminous minerals. To classify a specific item you must pick the matching sub-category and 8-digit code above; the right choice usually depends on the material and construction of the product.
How do I choose the right code within this category?
