A KAU is delimited only based on activity, not location. A KAU can, for example, consists of a combination of all businesses within an enterprise that runs hotel business. Within the same enterprise, there may be another KAU that runs restaurant business.

Standard Industrial Classification 2007 (SIC2007)

NACE

NACE is the classification of economic activities used for European statistics in the economic, social, environmental, and agricultural domains. It is based on the standard United Nations Statistics Division (UNSD) classification of economic activities, ISIC. The term NACE is derived from the French Nomenclature statistique des activités économiques dans la Communauté européenne.
