Frequently asked questions

I run an agritourism farm and want to offer rooms to guests: code 55.20.51 or the B&B code?
Usually 55.20.51, provided you are a farmer and the hospitality is an activity connected to your farm — linked to crop growing or livestock rearing. 55.20.41 applies to those who operate a B&B without that agricultural base. The key is the connection to the land, not the type of room.
Agritourism with accommodation AND a restaurant: is 55.20.51 enough, or do I need two codes?
You need two separate codes. Accommodation on the farm sits here under 55.20.51, while the kitchen and meals served to guests are classified under 56.11.91. They are two distinct connected activities, even if you carry them out on the same property.
I breed trout in a fish pond and rent rooms to anglers: does 55.20.51 apply?
No — if the underlying agricultural activity is aquaculture, the accommodation falls under 55.20.52. Code 55.20.51 covers hospitality connected to crop farming and land-based livestock. For fishing and aquaculture the code changes.
Standard room rental or accommodation on a farm: how do I know which one applies to me?
You only fall under 55.20.51 if you have a genuine farm and the hospitality is linked to it. Anyone renting rooms or apartments without that agricultural premise uses codes such as 55.20.42 or 55.20.41. The agricultural framework is what brings you to this code.
