Code of the UN Classification of Individual Consumption According to Purpose (COICOP), which classifies consumption expenditure by its purpose. Codes are written with dots: a two-digit division (01 to 15 in COICOP 2018) followed by one digit each for the group, class and subclass, as in 01.1.1.1. The COICOP 2018 structure published by the UN Statistics Division adds a fifth level under some subclasses (01.1.1.1.1). COICOP 1999 uses the same notation with fewer divisions, so the version cannot be told from the code alone.
