CNAE

Machine-translated from the Spanish article

The National Classification of Economic Activities, or CNAE, of Spain allows the classification and grouping of production units according to the activity they carry out for the purpose of preparing statistics. The latest update of the CNAE came into force on 1 January 2009, as provided by Royal Decree 475/2007 of 13 April 2007, which approved the National Classification of Economic Activities 2009 (CNAE-2009), and which began to be applied, in general, from 1 January 2009. The structure of the CNAE-2009 is based on four levels of classification: section, division, group and class, with identifying headings using an alphanumeric code of one, two, three and four digits, respectively.
