What OKVED code is used for agency services?

What is OKVED and who needs it

OKVED is a directory of codes, each of which corresponds to a specific type of activity.
This reference book was developed by the Ministry of Economic Development and is part of the standardization system of the Russian Federation (Rosstandart order “On the adoption and implementation of the All-Russian Classifier of Economic Activities [OKVED2] OK 029-2014 [NACE rev. 2]” dated January 31, 2014 No. 14-st [ ed. dated September 18, 2019]). Each enterprise or individual entrepreneur is obliged to correctly code its activities when registering for tax purposes. These codes help tax authorities systematize your activities. And the FSS, based on the main OKVED, assigns a contribution rate for injuries.

About this, see: “Do not confuse the FSS with unnecessary OKVED!”.

Also, using the OKVED code, you can determine whether your activity is licensed or not.

Read about this in the articles:

“The procedure for licensing educational activities”;
“Who needs a license to practice medicine.”

The OKVED code can consist of 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 characters (ХХ.ХХ.ХХ):

1, 2 - class;

3 - subclass;

4 - group;

5 - subgroup;

6 - view.

When registering, you must specify a code of at least 4 characters. You also have the right to indicate several codes in case you work in different areas. The code for the main activity is written first.

Our special service will help you choose the right OKVED codes.

You just need to type the keyword for the type of activity and click on the magnifying glass, the system will give you a list of the most suitable OKVED 2 codes.

By going to the next tab, you can use a ready-made set of codes and select the most suitable one.

In the process of work, you have the right to change or supplement your OKVED codes.

When and how you can change OKVED codes, read:

“How to change or add the main activity of an LLC?”;
“Changing the OKVED ID of a legal entity - step-by-step instructions.”

Where to look for OKVED codes

Today, only one code classifier remains relevant - “OK 029-2014 (NACE Rev. 2)”, approved. By order of Rosstandart dated January 31, 2014 N 14-st (as amended on July 10, 2018). It is also called "OKVED2".

There are two sections to refer to in this guide:

With "Manufacturing industries",
J "Activities in the field of information and communications."

They contain the OKVED codes necessary for publishing and printing activities. You can choose any number of ciphers, but only one of them is indicated as corresponding to the main activity, and the rest are considered additional.

Selected codes must contain at least 4 digital characters. For more detailed characteristics, you can choose five- or six-digit codes.

We select OKVED agent services

For agency services, the OKVED code is selected depending on the specific type of intermediary services provided by the enterprise or individual entrepreneur.

The further procedure will be as follows. We determine what activities in our company will be the main one. And we begin to carefully read the directory, in it we first look for a complete match with the name of our services.

Let's take a closer look at several sections of the reference book.

In section G “Wholesale and retail trade; repair of motor vehicles and motorcycles” paragraphs 45, 46, 47 refer to the services of agents in the field of wholesale and retail trade, as well as services related to motor vehicles.

So, for example, the code:

46.11 “Activities of agents in the wholesale trade of agricultural raw materials, live animals, textile raw materials and semi-finished products” is suitable for agents whose activities are related to agriculture;
69.1 - OKVED for legal services;
49.4 - OKVED - transport services and cargo transportation;
73.1 - OKVED advertising, etc.

You will learn which OKVED code you need to use when renting non-residential premises or vehicles from the articles:

“Used OKVED when leasing vehicles”;
"OKVED codes - rental of non-residential premises."

If nothing suitable is found, then you can subsume the declared activity under the “other services” section.

Agency services also include codes from sections S “Provision of other types” and N “Administrative activities and related additional services”.

Advisor to the State Civil Service of the Russian Federation, 1st class, S. N. Shalyaev explained in relation to which OKVED codes it is legal to use the simplified tax system. Get free trial access to the ConsultantPlus system and get acquainted with the official’s point of view.

OKVED - agency services for finding clients

Let us dwell in more detail on the provision of services for finding clients in areas not related to trade. In our time of fierce competition, this service has become very in demand.

Unfortunately, after reviewing the entire collection of OKVED, it is not possible to select a code with exactly this name. But there's nothing wrong with that. There are general purpose codes for such situations.

For this activity, it would be correct to use code 82.99, specified in section N “Administrative activities and related additional services.”

The code has the following decoding:

clause 82 - administrative and economic activities, support activities to ensure the functioning of the organization, activities to provide other support services for business;
subclause 99 - activities related to the provision of other support services for business, not included in other groups.

Is there a single OKVED code to designate the provision of intermediary services? Find out the answer to this question in the material from ConsultantPlus. If you do not have access to the K+ system, get a trial demo access for free.

Results

Having considered what OKVED is, we can say that choosing the correct code will not be very difficult; the main thing is to carefully read the reference book itself. In this case, for agent services for finding clients, there is no exact match in the directory, and we can use the code 82.99. If you doubt the correctness of the selected code, you can always call the tax office and consult with them.

You can find the current reference book in the section “All-Russian classifiers assigned to the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia” on the website of the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia.
