NAICS Code 2022 Update

The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) revision for 2022 was officially released in January 2022. NAICS codes are reviewed and revised every five years to keep the classification system current with changes in economic activities. NAICS 2022 is the latest revision for NAICS and supplanted the NAICS 2017 revision. The 2022 revisions to NAICS reflect a deemphasis on the delivery method as an industry function used in NAICS classification. Publication of NAICS United States, 2022 Manual was released in January 2022. 

For the 2022 revision, Canada, Mexico, and the United States focused on new and emerging industries, as well as the continued usefulness of employing the mode of delivery (online versus in store/print) as an industry delineation criterion in the Wholesale Trade, Retail Trade, and Information sectors.

For the 2022 NAICS revision, seven industries in the 2017 NAICS structure have been updated. Establishments that are classified in one of these seven 2017 NAICS Industries are asked to select the new 2022 NAICS Industry that best describes their main business activity.
