A guide to depth of operation: How to achieve compliance and vision?
The scope of operations is the legal limit for the operation of the business and the basis for the approval of taxes and the invoicing of tax authorities. In the business management environment of 2026, the scope of operations has been standardized and standardized.
What is the “specified description of the scope of the operation”?
In the past, entrepreneurs could freely describe their business in the light of their preferences, resulting in a variety of names. The Directorate of Market Supervision now promotes a normative expression that all operations must be selected from the pre-established vocabulary. For example, “doing the APP development” should be described as “software development” or “information system integration services”. This tool is fully synchronized with the latest vocabulary.
Distinction between “general items” and “licenced projects”
- General items: On-site. A licence is issued to allow the operation to proceed, provided that it is registered in the operating licence.
- Licensed items: requires prior approval. Such as catering services, labour dispatches, trade in dangerous goods, etc., require the corresponding trade licence before the activity can be carried out. This generator automatically adds the declaration “the legally approved project ...” at the end.
3. The impact of the scope of operations on taxation
The scope of operations directly determines the type of invoice that the company can issue. If the actual business goes beyond the registration, there may be a risk of systematic interception or taxation when invoicing. In addition, certain specific industries (e.g. high-technology enterprises) have strict requirements for the share of their main business income and the choice of scope should match the company ' s strategy.
4. Common error zones: the more good the better?
Not really. While the scope of operations can be chosen across industries, too wide a range can lead partners to feel “unprofessional”. Recommendation: The main industry is in the forefront, and the side-sector selects 5-8 related core lines.
