Property classification by the EU law

For the purposes of property classification the EU has adopted a categorization system known as ‘Classification of Types of Construction’ or CC. Latvia, being a member state of the Union, also adheres to this system, especially for the purposes of statistics reports. The system is divided into:

• 2 Sections (1-digit)
• 6 Divisions (2-digit)
• 20 Groups (3-digit)
• 46 Classes (4-digit)
