GET
/industries

Every code of the German classification of economic activities, WZ 2025 (Destatis, Klassifikation der Wirtschaftszweige, Ausgabe 2025): a section (A), a division (01), a group (01.1), a class (62.10) or a subclass (01.11.0). Each entry carries the German title, the level (1 to 5) and the parent code. A section has no parent. The order is Destatis's: depth-first, so each code is followed by the codes under it and section B comes only after every code under section A.

A company carries only the codes Registercheck assigned (industries on the company). Read this list once to show the title or to walk from a code to the section it belongs to.

The same for every caller, and it reads no account data.

Free.
