1. What is a Business Industry Code?
A Business Industry Code is a series of numbers encoded to represent a specific business line. Organizations and individuals, when preparing business registration documents, must use this business industry code table for registration. The 4-digit (level 4) industry code is the code used for business registration.
The Vietnam Standard Industrial Classification (VSIC) system, issued under Decision 36/2025/QĐ-TTg, has a hierarchical structure with 5 levels, from general to specific:
| Level | Name | Coding | Quantity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Economic Sector Level 1 | 1 letter (from A to V) | 22 sectors |
| Level 2 | Economic Sector Level 2 | 2 digits (based on Level 1) | 87 sectors |
| Level 3 | Economic Sector Level 3 | 3 digits (based on Level 2) | 259 sectors |
| Level 4 | Economic Sector Level 4 | 4 digits (based on Level 3) | 495 sectors |
| Level 5 | Economic Sector Level 5 | 5 digits (based on Level 4) | 743 sectors |
