Frequently Asked Questions
A Standard Industrial Classification code, commonly known as an SIC code, consists of five digits and serves to describe a company’s primary business activity. It plays a crucial role in providing Companies House, the Office for National Statistics (ONS), and other government entities with a comprehensive framework of data and insights into various industries and businesses across the UK. Even if your company is classified as dormant (99999) or non-trading (74990), you are still required to provide the relevant SIC code.
While most companies typically choose a single SIC code that best represents their business activities, it’s worth noting that you have the option to select up to four SIC codes. This flexibility allows you to provide a more comprehensive description of your company’s operations, especially when a single code may not adequately capture the full scope of your business activities.
There are several valid reasons for wanting to change your SIC code:
Change in Principal Business: If your company’s primary business activities have shifted or evolved, it may be necessary to update your SIC code to accurately reflect these changes.
Initial Code Error: It’s not uncommon for companies to select the wrong SIC code during their initial registration, especially if they engage in multiple types of work. Some SIC codes can be quite broad and vague.
Business Expansion: As your business grows and diversifies, you might need to include additional SIC codes to encompass the various activities your company is involved in. Remember that you can select up to four industrial SIC codes to provide a more comprehensive description of your operations.
