International Classifications

International Classifications are standardized systems used worldwide to organize and categorize information—such as diseases, products, or services—ensuring consistency and clarity. For example, the ICD (International Classification of Diseases) groups health conditions uniformly across countries, aiding diagnosis, treatment, and research. Similarly, trade classifications organize goods for tariffs and regulations. These systems facilitate international communication, data comparison, and decision-making by providing a common framework, regardless of language or location.
