HSN Code Details
Liquefied natural gas is a clear, odorless gas that is cooled to around –162 °C to become a liquid, enabling it to be stored and transported in insulated tanks. Exporters should verify that the receiving country accepts LNG as a feedstock for power generation or industrial processes.
LNG shipments require cryogenic containment vessels rated to 2–3 bar pressure and must be loaded under strict temperature control to prevent vaporization; documentation should include a cryogenic safety data sheet and a certificate of origin.
