See More Frequent Questions about Fuels Registration, Reporting, and Compliance Help.

Foreign producers who plan to generate RINs must register and conduct a third-party engineering review pursuant to section 80.1450. Additionally, such foreign producers must meet the requirements in section 80.1466 prior to generating any RINs for their fuel. The requirements in section 80.1466 include requirements such as posting a bond, committing to allow EPA inspections of the foreign production facility, and segregating the renewable fuel for which RINs are generated from non-renewable fuel and other renewable fuel that is not being imported into the U.S.
