Frequently asked questions
What EU funds are available for public administration in 2026?
We are not currently tracking any open or announced programme whose CAEN list includes section O. 17 programmes with no sector restriction remain open and are listed on this page.
Which CAEN codes fall under section O?
Section O ("Public administration and defence; compulsory social security") covers CAEN divisions 84. The guides give the eligible list by class (4 digits), so your company's exact code matters.
How many active companies are there in public administration?
215 active companies have their main CAEN code in section O; 163 had employees in their latest financial statements and 6 were established in the last two years.
Does it matter whether the CAEN code is primary or secondary?
It depends on the guide: some programmes require the funded activity to be the main code, while others accept a secondary code authorised at the investment location. Companies now hold codes under CAEN revision 2 or 3; the lists here include the equivalences between the two revisions.
A company in public administration?
We check your company's CAEN codes against the lists of open programmes and tell you where you fit — free of charge, before any contract.
