Combined Nomenclature (CN) 2026: new commodity codes for Intrastat
The European Commission published the 2026 version of the Combined Nomenclature (CN) in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/1926 (31 October 2025). It applies from 1 January 2026 and forms the basis for declaring goods in customs and for intra-EU trade statistics (Intrastat). The CN 2026 introduces new and amended codes, including for energy and battery materials (e.g. lithium-based oxides, battery-related chemicals), clean technology (e.g. photovoltaic wafers, wind turbine components, hydrogen fuel cells, battery modules), and various reclassifications and clarifications. Member states require Intrastat declarations to use CN 2026 codes for the 2026 statistical year. See our commodity codes page for a downloadable code list.
