Get right UNSPSC codes for your products and services
The United Nations Standard Products and Services Code (UNSPSC) is a comprehensive, global classification system developed by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). This open, multi-sector standard enables organizations worldwide to classify products and services with precision and consistency. UNSPSC is essential for e-procurement platforms, supply chain optimization, spend analysis, vendor management, and facilitating B2B commerce across industries and borders.

For the best classification results please include as much relevant and accurate data as possible. The more specific details you include, the more accurate the results will be. Long multi-line unformatted text and broken tables work fine - any input is accepted as long as it accurately describes what you want to classify.
Understanding UNSPSC Classification
Structure & Hierarchy
UNSPSC uses a hierarchical 8-digit code structure divided into four levels:
- Segment: First 2 digits (e.g. 43 - Information Technology Broadcasting and Telecommunications)
- Family: Next 2 digits (e.g. 43.21 - Computer Equipment and Accessories)
- Class: Next 2 digits (e.g. 43.21.16 - Computer accessories)
- Commodity: Final 2 digits (e.g. 43.21.16.07 - Computer speakers)
Industry Applications
UNSPSC is widely used across these sectors:
- • E-procurement platforms and marketplaces
- • Supply chain management systems
- • Spend analysis and vendor management
- • Government procurement (GSA schedules)
- • Healthcare supply chain optimization
Version History & Updates
UNSPSC is maintained by GS1 US and updated regularly. The current version (v26.0801 from August 2023) includes over 150000 active codes covering products and services across all industries.
