Ukraine-EU: From The KVED:2010 To NACE 2.1-UA Economic Classification

On October 28, 2025 the Order approving NACE 2.1-UA was issued, which means transition to the EU statistical classification, full synchronization of methods, ensuring data comparability, and easing doing business with partners. NACE 2.1 is the current version of the classification, which the EU has been using in statistical practice since 2025. From 1 January 2027, Ukraine will switch to this new classification of economic activities.

Kea Idea of the Classification:  is to group enterprises under general features such as type of products or services, technological processes, common raw material base or production methods. Each group has its own code, which is used to determine the primary and secondary activities of enterprises, their divisions, and sole proprietorships.
