Frequently asked questions
Driving school for category B licence: ATECO code 85.53.00 or 85.32.03 for professional drivers?
85.53.00 for driving schools that prepare candidates for a private-use driving licence. When you train professional drivers — such as lorry or bus drivers — the activity moves up to 85.32.03. The professional purpose of the licence determines the code.
Sailing school for a recreational nautical licence: is it 85.53.00?
Yes, flying, sailing, and navigation schools that do not issue commercial licences or certificates fall under 85.53.00. If instead you issue qualifications for professional navigation, the classification is 85.32.01.
I also run advanced driving courses for motorsport enthusiasts: does that fall under 85.53.00?
Usually not if the emphasis is on sporting practice. The standard driving school for private individuals is 85.53.00, but driving taught as a sport or recreational discipline falls under sports education at 85.51.09.
