The Social Security Authority has begun the process of implementing the new National Classification of Economic Activities (CNAE-2025), approved by Royal Decree 10/2025, of the 14th of January. This update affects all companies and workers in the General Regime for Self-Employed Workers (Régimen General de Trabajadores Autónomos (RETA)).

To begin with,
The CNAE is a system that classifies economic activities, affecting contributions, bonuses, risk prevention and official statistics. The new version (CNAE-2025) replaces the current CNAE-2009 and will be mandatory.
All companies and self-employed workers must notify the Social Security General Treasury (Tesorería General de la Seguridad Social (TGSS)) of their new CNAE-2025 code between the 1st of March and the 30th of June 2025.
Since March 2025 the RED System has enabled a specific option to make this communication through its Virtual Office. In addition, during the month of May, each RED Authorisation has received a personalised table with the CNAE codes pending update for their assigned NAFs.
