Read definitionNUTS Level 1 divides EU member states into major socio-economic regions, each with a population between 3 million and 7 million, forming the first sub-national tier of the NUTS hierarchy and used in procurement notices to indicate broad regional contract performance.
Read definitionNUTS Level 2 defines the basic regions of EU member states, each with a population between 800,000 and 3 million, and serves as the primary geographic unit for EU Cohesion Policy fund allocation and for pinpointing contract performance in public procurement notices on TED.
Read definitionNUTS Level 3 defines the smallest geographic units in the NUTS classification, each with a population between 150,000 and 800,000, and is the most precise NUTS level available in public procurement notices for specifying where a contract will be performed.
Read definitionThe place of performance is a mandatory field in EU public procurement notices that identifies where a contract will be executed, expressed as one or more NUTS codes, enabling suppliers to filter and discover geographically relevant opportunities across TED and national procurement portals.
Read definitionA region code in procurement is the standardised geographic identifier, typically a NUTS code, used in European public procurement notices to specify the sub-national area where a contract will be performed, enabling systematic geographic filtering of opportunities across TED and national portals.
