Self-classification

Self-classification is also possible. This means that economic entities themselves choose the codes from the public nomenclatures that best suit their activity.

This is facilitated by the content definitions of the statistical classifications available in the Classifications section of the website (link), the translation keys and the various search engines (e.g.. TEÁOR search engine, ÖVTJ-search engine).

If the exact classification of a given activity, product, service or economic entity is unclear or disputed, given the structure of the classification, the definitions of the content of the elements, the methodological guide and the translation keys, please contact our staff via the Contact us! interface.
