Methodological note

Company is the smallest combination of legal units constituting an organisational unit for the production of goods or services, one having certain autonomy in terms of decision-making, principally for allocating the resources it has at its disposal.

Establishment is a company (or part of a company) located in a specific geographical location at which economic activities are conducted on behalf of the company.

Until the 2018 reference year, the concept of the company was coterminous with the legal unit, but it changed from 2019 on. The new statistical concept of the company has to do with the company's organisational structure, autonomy of decision and market orientation. The legal units that do not form part of groups of companies continue to be considered companies in their own right.

The new definition of economically active company, after Regulation 2019/2152 on European business statistics (EBS) and Implementing Regulation 2020/1197 came into force, affects the calculation of the number of companies and establishments; therefore, the data as of 1 January 2023 are not comparable with those of previous years.

The CCAE-09 has been used on the sectorial delimitation since 2008. In the period previous to year 2008 the CCAE-93 Rev.1 in the sectorial boundary has been used. That is the reason why the data of this period with those of the later one cannot be compared.

The data reference period is from the 1st of January of the corresponding year.
