Frequently asked questions

I sell pellets, firewood and LPG cylinders to households — is the right code 47.78.30?
Yes. Code 47.78.30 covers the retail sale of firewood, wood or biomass pellets, coal, domestic heating oil and gas cylinders — everything households need for heating and cooking.
I only deliver cylinders and pellets to customers' doors, with no shop — does 47.78.30 still apply?
Yes. The activity remains retail sale of domestic fuel even when it is carried out by home delivery. What matters is that the end customer is a household and the product is domestic fuel — a physical shopfront is not required.
I sell pellets and firewood to resellers and businesses, not to households — is this still the right code?
No. Code 47.78.30 covers retail sales to the final consumer. Supplying resellers or businesses in bulk falls under the wholesale trade codes for fuels, not this retail category.
