Frequently asked questions
I produce packaged vegetarian ready meals and vegetable side dishes — is that ATECO code 10.85.03?
I only produce frozen vegetables, not complete dishes — is that 10.85.03 or vegetable preservation?
When you produce a cooked ready meal based on vegetables you are in 10.85.03. Simply preserving vegetables — frozen or canned, without turning them into a ready meal — follows the fruit and vegetable processing codes in group 10.3, such as 10.39.00.
I produce ready-made veggie burgers and legume patties — is that 10.85.03 or meat dishes?
10.85.03. Veggie burgers, legume patties and ready meals where the main ingredient is plant-based all belong here. Ready meals based on meat or poultry follow 10.85.01 instead. What dominates the dish is what counts, not its meat-like appearance.
I make ready-to-heat minestrone and vegetable soups — do they fall under 10.85.03?
Yes, when the soup or minestrone is a cooked ready meal based on vegetables. If you only package cut or puréed vegetables for the consumer to cook at home — without making a finished dish — you stay under fruit and vegetable preservation in 10.39.00.
