Classification of Economic Activities (EVRK) is a structured set of social and economic activities carried out in the country’s economy, the unit of classification of which is the kind of activity. The use of this Classification allows for the categorisation of all economic entities existing in the country and for the collection of data on population, production, employment, agriculture, income and other data by kind of activity. It is also used to compare statistics at national and cross-border level.

The Classification is based on Statistical Classification of Economic Activities in the European Community – NACE Rev. 2 (Nomenclatures des Activities de Communite Europeene – NACE Rev. 2), which is compiled by the Statistical Office of the European Union (Eurostat), and which is related to the UN International Standard Industrial Classification of All Economic Activities (ISIC Rev. 4). This allows statistical information to be compared by economic activity at both European and global level. The first 4 digits of the EVRK correspond to the NACE codes for the same economic activities, i.e. the codes, titles and explanatory notes are identical. The only difference is that the EVRK has the 5th level (6‑digit codes) – subclasses. 

The new Classification of Economic Activities ( EVRK Rev. 2.1 ) enters into force from 2025 If you know the activity code according to the EVRK 2 classification, you can find the updated code in the correlation table between ERVK Rev. 2 and ERVK Rev. 2.1 (only in Lithuanian).

If you know the activity code according to the EVRK 2.1 classification, you can find the corresponding code from the previous EVRK 2 classification in the correlation table between EVRK Rev. 2.1 and EVRK Rev. 2 (only in Lithuanian).
