Use the legacy converter only as a migration aid. Old NIC 2008 matches can suggest where to look, but NIC 2025 should remain the primary reference for new code selection.
NIC 202305 should be selected only when the official title matches the main revenue-generating activity. If the business also trades, transports, processes, installs or supports the same product or service, compare nearby NIC pages before filing. This reduces the risk of choosing a code that describes the product being handled rather than the activity your enterprise actually performs.
