Please note the mentioned code requirements are for dwelling units only.

If not a dwelling unit 210.70 (C) applies and the only required lighting outlet is in attics or crawl spaces that contain equipment that may require servicing.

Other codes may require certain lighting outlets or switch locations but not the NEC.
