Variable used for identifying principal and secondary activitiesVariable used for identifying principal and secondary activitiesVariable used for identifying principal and secondary activitiesVariable used for identifying principal and secondary activities
In industry the principal activity of a unit is the activity for which the value added of production is the highest. When the latter is unknown, the highest value of production and the number of employees are used as criteria. In services the principal activity is determined by the number of employees. In cases where this information is not available, the main activity is based on the conversion of the activity codes in the administrative files, but where these do not correspond with the CNAE there are

some uncertainties (around 8%). For the census of business premises the principal activity was defined as that which generated the highest value from production, sales or the supply of services. When these criteria were not relevant the principal activity was taken to be that which employed the largest number of persons.

Definitions of each unitDefinitions of each unitDefinitions of each unitDefinitions of each unit
Concepts linked to statistical units are trying to adapt definitions included in the Council Regulation (EEC) No 696/93. In this way:
Enterprise is an organisational unit producing goods or services, having legal basis on a natural person or a legal person or a combination of them, and carrying out one or more activities at one or more locations.
Local unit is an enterprise or part thereof (e.g. a workshop, factory, warehouse, office, mine or depot) situated in a geographically identified place. At or from this place economic activity is carried out for which one or more persons work (even if only part-time) for one and the same enterprise.
Summary of useSummary of useSummary of useSummary of use
Registered. The Spanish Business Register includes 4 kinds of statistical units:
- Legal unit (Juridical and Natural Persons)
- Enterprise (see definition above)
- Local unit (see definition above)
- Enterprise group (defined from control links among legal units)

1.5.1.1.5.1.1.5.1.1.5.1. General informationGeneral informationGeneral informationGeneral information
Name of register
Directorio Central de Empresas (DIRCE) - Central Business Register.
Institution responsible for the register
DIRCE (Spanish Business Register) is compiled directly by INE (National Statistic Institute of Spain), and the department responsible is the Methodology and Statistical Techniques Directorate.
Person responsible
Esteban Barbado INE 183 Paseo de la Castellana 28046 Madrid Tel.: (+34) 91 5839123 Fax: (+34) 91 5839484
Purpose of the register
Basis for sampling frames.
Tool for developing and harmonizing business surveys.
To provide structural and business-demographic statistics.
To meet information requirements of international organisations.
Means to control informative burden on enterprises.
To provide comparability in time series.
Legal basis
In addition to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2186/93, Spain has in his legislation the ‘Ley 12/1989 de la Función Estadística Pública’ (Spanish Statistic Basic Act) which set up that INE is required to compile and to update a Business Register.
Obligation to register for births and deaths
New units (and units that close) are not obliged to inform INE of this fact, but there is a legal obligation for the administrative sources used for updating the business register.
Date of creation and major changes
The first (provisional) release of DIRCE was obtained in 1990. Since then, successive yearly updating has been produced. Changes have been caused mainly because of increasing demands of users and future requirements of legal frame.
Date first used for structural business statistics
DIRCE was used for the first time in 1990 for the 1989 Survey on the Structure of Enterprises in Catering (Service Sector Statistics).

Limits of legal right of access
DIRCE (individual data) can be only used by National Statistical Authorities.
Exceptions concerning common classifications

Activities covered
DIRCE covers all compulsory economic activities included in Council Regulation (EEC) No 2186/93. Recently economic activities from NACE-93 Rev. 1.1 Sections A, B, L, P and Q, are being incorporated to DIRCE in a progressive way. At present, coverage levels of these new activities can be considered as acceptable.
Geographical area covered
DIRCE contains information on all national territory.
Size classes covered
There are no exclusions with regard to size class.
Other inclusions or exclusions
There are no additional criteria to include or to exclude units.
Coverage rate
External checks on employment allow us to infer a very high level of coverage in DIRCE.

Level of activity classified
Main economic activity is classified to 4-digit level of NACE Rev. 1.1. Secondary activities carried out by the enterprises, up to a maximum of three, can be obtained.
Level of geographical location recorded
The level of geographical location recorded for all units of DIRCE is NUTS 5. Full address is also recorded.
9 STRUCTURAL BUSINESS STATISTICS METHODOLOGY
Method of size registration
Three variables are used as measures of size in the register:
- employees
- persons employed (estimate)
- turnover (estimate for small units)
Single value is available for all units.
Registration or not of legal form
Yes, on the basis of the first character in the legal identifier NIF (Fiscal Identification Number).
Registration or not of foreign ownership
Yes. This information is collected from external private sources (D&B).
Registration or not of public ownership
Yes. Information on Public Enterprises is collected from external administrative sources (National Audit Office and Central Bank).
Registration or not of inter unit links
Yes, there are links for all kinds of units registered in DIRCE.
Distinction between market oriented and non-market units
Nowadays there is a work-in-progress in order to incorporate Institutional Sector as a new variable in DIRCE. This variable combined with legal form and economic activity code will allow us to distinguish between marked oriented and non-market units.
List of economic variables registered
Economic variables correspond to which are used as measures of size (employees, persons employed and turnover), such as we pointed out above.
These variables adapt definitions included in manuals and methodologies proposed for economic statistics implementation.
Other characteristics registered
- Identification variables (Identifier number, Name, Telephone number, Fax, etc.)
- Location variables (Full Postal Adress, Geographical Code NUTS 5)
- Classification variables (Economic activity code, size, legal form, etc.)
- Demographic variables (status, Dates of commencement/cessation of activities)
- Reference to other external files (INTRASTAT/EXTRASTAT, National Audit Office, Central Bank, etc.)

1.5.4.1.5.4.1.5.4.1.5.4. Register Updating Register Updating Register Updating Register Updating
List of main sources of information for updating
The model for the generation and maintenance of the information system is based on the use and exploitation of external sources of different nature. In the first developments, only administrative sources were considered. Later, the putting into practice of processes to improve the quality has allowed incorporating the changes detected in the own statistical operations. Next, the main used sources are related:
Tax sources:
• Economic Activities Tax (State and Navarre Community scope).
• P.A.Y.E. Deductions.
• INTRASTAT and EXTRASTAT register.
Social sources:
• Social Security Counts.
Statistical sources:
• Directory of economic activities (Basque Country)
• Current statistical operations.
Legal sources and other types of sources:
• Mercantile Register
• Public Companies of the National Audit Office (Ministry of Finance)
Private sources:
• Dun and Bradstreet data base.
Frequency of receipt of updates by the register team – Breakdown by administrative
source
DIRCE is annually updated. All sources are received in INE and processed once a year.
Frequency with which the raw data in the administrative sources are updated (if known)
-- not available –
Lead time between the update of the administrative source and receipt by the
register team
Lead time varies from an administrative source to other, but it never surpasses 2 months.

1.5.5.1.5.5.1.5.5.1.5.5. DisseminationDisseminationDisseminationDissemination
Existence of standard dissemination and possibility of special tabulations
DIRCE is an important toot for statistical production. Access to aggregated data is free. An annual standard publication is available at INE Website (INEbase), including the main methodological subjects. Department managing DIRCE also offers a customized information request service. At present, DIRCE is one of the more demanded products of INE.

An industrial survey is carried out annually. A separate annual survey is conducted in the construction sector. The development of statistics on the service sectors has been underway since the late 1980s. Since year 1998 an annual survey is carried out. A census of business premises was carried out in 1990. Between 1988 and 1997 (reference years) a number of sector specific enterprise surveys were launched, notably: — domestic trade (1988) — structure of restaurant, bar and cafeteria enterprises (1989 and 1994) — passenger transport (annually since 1991) — road freight enterprises (1992) — technical services (1992) — hotel enterprises (1992 and 1996) — audio-visual services (1992 and 1997) — structure of travel agencies (1993) — consultancy enterprises (1993) — advertising (1994) — renting of machinery and equipment (1994) — communications (1995 and 1996)

Description of standard tables produced
We publish five groups of tables: - The first group has only one table with the number of enterprises by sectors of activity, number of employees and legal entity of the enterprises. - The second group contains six tables with different variables by groups of activity. The groups of activity are: Wholesale, retail trade and repair of motor vehicles and motorcycles, Wholesale trade, Retail trade, Tourism, Transport, Information Society, Real Estate and Rental activities, Business Services, Recreational, cultural and sport activities and Personal services. The variables published are: the main variables (those mandatory in the regulation), the main rates (productivity, number of persons employed by enterprise, average wage,…), another accounting variables, data relating to the capital account, persons employed by type of job and persons employed by quarter. - The third group contains six tables with different variables by sectors of activity and number of employees. The sectors are more detailed than the groups of activity (for instance, 501,…,505,511,…,517, 551+552, 631+632+634,…). The variables published are the same than for the groups. - The fourth group contains four tables with different variables by sub-sectors of activity. The sub-sectors are more detailed than the sectors (for instance, 551,552, 631, 632, 634,…). The variables published are the same than for the groups except for the other accounting variables, data relating to the capital account and persons employed by quarter. - The fifth group contains results by regions. These tables contains information about the main variables by groups of activity and regions.
