Frequently asked questions
Self-employed architect designing buildings: is the 2025 ATECO code 71.11.09?
Yes, architectural activities — from building design and draughting to interior architecture and urban planning — fall under 71.11.09. If you design structural works or building systems, the activity shifts into engineering under 71.12.10; the two profiles often coexist.
Architect or engineer: does the professional who signs structural calculations use a different ATECO code?
I work on conservation and restoration of cultural heritage as an architect: is 71.11.09 correct?
Yes, architectural work in support of the conservation and restoration of cultural heritage is covered by 71.11.09. If your work involves the design and supervision of an archaeological excavation, the code is instead 71.11.01.
