What is the Definition of NFC? What determines if a chip is an NFC chip or an "standard" RFID chip?

Is it for example linked to the protocol this chip is working on?

I know the functional difference between NFC and RFID and I know that NFC works on HF RFID (13.56 MHz) but what is the technical difference?
