NACE code index: business activity codes (Greek ΚΑΔ)

What is a NACE activity code

The ΚΑΔ (Κωδικός Αριθμός Δραστηριότητας, activity code number) is the official classification of economic activities in Greece. Every company declares one or more activity codes to the tax authority, stating what it does. The classification is harmonised with the European NACE Rev.2 system.

Structure of the activity code

Activity codes are hierarchical and have between two and eight digits. The first two identify the sector, and each further pair of digits narrows the activity down. The more digits, the more specific the activity.

• 01 crop and animal production, hunting
• 01.11 growing of cereals, leguminous crops and oil seeds
• 01.11.10 growing of wheat

Activity codes and NACE

Greek activity codes are based on NACE Rev.2, the European Union statistical classification of economic activities. In most cases the first four digits map to a NACE class and the digits beyond that are national detail. Some four-digit codes, however, are Greek-only and have no NACE equivalent.

To see the activity codes of a specific company, search for it on BizList by VAT number or name and check the declared codes on its profile.

In the list below, each code shows the number of companies that have declared it.
