Statistical classification of economic activities in the European Community

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The statistical classification of economic activities in the European Community (in French: Nomenclature statistique des activités économiques dans la Communauté européenne), commonly referred to as NACE, is a European industry standard classification system consisting of a 6 digit code.

NACE is equivalent to the SIC and NAICS system:

• Standard Industrial Classification
• North American Industry Classification System

The first four digits of the code are the same in all European countries. The fifth digit might vary from country to country and further digits are sometimes placed by suppliers of databases.
