I read you cannot declare hives without siret number. Can you add this activity to list as AE and use existing siret or do you need special siret from chamber of agriculture?

Frankly I doubt that your Mairie or local impots will even be aware of the changes out in the sticks, it's hardly a high profile activity. Other registrations are with DSV and MSA if you are being professional or semi professional.
