History

The first OKVED (OK 029-2001) was based on NACE Rev. 1 and was revised for NACE Rev. 1.1 in 2007. OKVED 2 (OK 029-2014) moved Russia onto NACE Rev. 2 and became mandatory for business registration in 2016. Its level names differ from NACE: a two-digit “class” is a NACE division.

Usage & importance

Every Russian company and sole proprietor declares OKVED 2 codes on registration (EGRUL/EGRIP), and they drive statistical reporting and social-insurance tariffs. Conversions run through the official UN NACE Rev. 2 → ISIC tables; codes are only marked exact where the OKVED title confirms the NACE match.
