Frequently asked questions

Does a writers' or artists' association use 94.12.20?
Yes, if the activity is associative — representation, information, public relations, or joint initiatives among professionals. If the entity creates its own works, the code shifts towards 90.11.09 or 90.12.00.
A learned society engaged in public outreach: does it stay on 94.12.20?
Usually yes, if the focus remains the association of scholars or specialists. If it sells structured courses as a training service, look at 85.59.20.
A journalists' association or a learned society versus a sectoral trade union: which code changes?
It stays on 94.12.20 as long as the focus is bringing together professionals or scholars around a discipline or a craft. If the body was created to negotiate working conditions and represent workers, the comparison is with 94.20.00.
