Code lists

Important Notes:

Download TAXUD Code Lists: Visit the European Commission’s reference data page, select “NCTS-P5” in the Domain list, and download the required code lists (e.g., CL505 for country codes).

Automate Daily Updates: Schedule daily updates to refresh code lists, ensuring alignment with the latest updates from TAXUD.

Synchronise Validation: Ensure your software’s validation logic is consistently updated to match the latest downloaded code lists to prevent rejections.

CL505 Requirement: For countries not listed in CL505, a postcode is mandatory in the declaration. Declarations without a postcode for these countries (i.e., those excluded from CL505) will be rejected.

Code List Mapping: Use the mapping table to identify and download the appropriate code list for each data field.
