Frequently asked questions

I distribute jewellery, watches, silverware or worked gemstones to shops: is 46.48.00 correct?
Yes, if you purchase and wholesale watches, jewellery, silverware or worked precious stones. If you act as an agent, see 46.18.24; if you sell to the public, compare with 47.77.00.
I also repair watches and jewellery for customers: do I need a different code?
For distribution you stay on 46.48.00. If repair becomes a standalone service, see 95.25.00. The distinction is straightforward: goods sold wholesale on one side, a repair workshop on the other.
I import watches and jewellery from abroad to resell to shops: do I stay on 46.48.00 or do I need an importer code?
You stay on 46.48.00: buying watches and jewellery abroad and reselling them wholesale is the same activity — importing on your own account is included. If instead you buy gold from private individuals to resell to trade operators, that is a separate activity covered by 46.82.21.
