ÖNACE 2025: Austrian Classification of Economic Activities

ÖNACE 2025 is the Austrian national version of the NACE classification of economic activities. It aligns with NACE up to the 4-digit level but introduces an additional hierarchical level of national subclasses to reflect Austrian economic particularities. The dataset is provided by Cooperation OGD Österreich and Wikimedia Österreich under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Standardizing business activity reporting based on the classification hierarchy.
• Harmonizing Austrian economic statistics with European (NACE) and international (ISIC) systems.
• Mapping economic activities to related product classifications (CPC, HS, PRODCOM).

Strengths

• The classification is fully identical to the European NACE standard up to the 4-digit level, ensuring cross-border comparability.
• It introduces a further hierarchical level of national subclasses to better reflect Austrian economic activity.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
