CLANAEArgentina2010

Clasificador Nacional de Actividades Económicas

Argentina’s national classifier of economic activities, maintained by INDEC. CLANAE 2010 is based on ISIC Rev. 4 with national adaptations: 433 four-digit classes (many regrouped for Argentine detail) and 794 five-digit subclasses.

How a CLANAE code is built

Each digit narrows the activity from the broadest sector down to a specific national industry. Here's how 01.111 decomposes:

History

CLANAE 1997 followed ISIC Rev. 3; CLANAE 2010 moved Argentina onto ISIC Rev. 4. Several classes are renumbered within their groups (CLANAE 01.12 is oilseeds where ISIC 0112 is rice), so a shared code is never taken as proof of a match.

Usage & importance

Used by INDEC for national statistics, and the basis of the activity nomenclature that Argentine businesses use with the tax agency. Conversions pass through the UN ISIC Rev. 4 → Rev. 5 tables and are exact only where the CLANAE title confirms the ISIC match.
