Frequently asked questions

I sell measuring, control, navigation, or laboratory instruments to businesses — is 46.64.91 correct?
Yes, if your catalogue focuses on measuring and controlling instruments and apparatus. If you act as an intermediary for industrial machinery and equipment, see 46.14.01; for general machinery compare 46.64.99.
I manufacture sensors or measuring instruments and distribute them — can I list only 46.64.91?
No, the manufacture of instruments must be assessed separately — for example against 26.51.10 when the product falls within navigation, hydrology, geophysics, or meteorology instruments. 46.64.91 remains for wholesale sales.
46.64.91 or 46.64.99 if alongside measuring instruments I also sell various other professional machinery?
Specialisation is what counts. 46.64.91 is dedicated to measuring, controlling, and laboratory instruments and apparatus; when the catalogue adds heterogeneous machinery with no specific code, the general portion belongs in 46.64.99.
