What is a SIC Code?
A Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) code is a 5-digit number that describes what your business does. Companies House uses this to classify your business activity.
Why do I need to update it?
You must keep Companies House informed if your business activities change. This ensures your public record is accurate, which is important for banks, insurers, and potential clients checking your legitimacy.
How many codes can I have?
A company can have up to 4 SIC codes at any one time. If you have multiple business activities, you should select the codes that best describe your main revenue streams.
How long does the update take?
Once submitted, Companies House typically updates the public register within 24 hours. We process your submission immediately to avoid delays.
Does this affect my taxes?
Updating your SIC code doesn't directly change your tax liability, but HMRC uses this information to understand your business sector. It helps ensure you're categorised correctly for any sector-specific tax rules.
Can I change my SIC code anytime?
Yes, you can update your business activity at any time by filing a confirmation statement or an early update like this service. You don't have to wait for your annual confirmation statement due date.
What if I can't find an exact match?
SIC codes are general categories. If you can't find an exact match, choose the code that most closely describes your business activity. There are also general codes like 'Other business support service activities' if nothing specific fits.
What is the cost?
Our fee is £14.99. Companies House takes the change on a confirmation statement, which has a £50 fee once in each 12-month period. If your company has not paid it yet for the current period, the £50 is added at checkout; if it has, you pay only £14.99.
