UK SIC 2007 · 82990
UK business services catch-all, virtual assistants, BPO providers, collections, credit reporting, document services, and any business-support activity that doesn't fit a more specific code.
This division would be modest without 82990, the other business support n.e.c. code, which companies across every industry pick when nothing else describes them. Lists built purely on 82990 are therefore noisy and mixed, spanning virtual assistants, consultants, agencies and outright misclassifications. The specific codes are far more coherent: 82110 covers combined office administrative services, 82301 exhibition and fair organisers, 82302 conference organisers, and 82920 the packaging and fulfilment trade that has grown alongside online retail.
82110, Combined office administrative service activities82190, Photocopying, document preparation82910, Activities of collection agencies and credit bureausWork the edges rather than the middle. Event organisers under 82301 and 82302 buy venues, AV production, registration platforms, sponsorship sales and event insurance, with new incorporations often marking an events director going independent. Packaging and fulfilment companies under 82920 attract machinery suppliers, courier partnerships and warehouse property agents. For 82990 itself, layer other filters before outreach: incorporation date, location, officer history and web presence turn an unusable catch-all into a source of otherwise unlisted businesses that cleaner competitor lists never reach.
ACTIVE COMPANIES BY REGISTERED-OFFICE POST TOWN · COMPANIES HOUSE REGISTER, JULY 2026
It's a catch-all, virtual assistants, freelance ops people, fractional CXOs, and many gig-economy ltds end up here. The cohort is heterogeneous; expect to need additional filters to narrow it.
There's no exact SIC for VAs. SIC 82990 + sole-director + recent incorporation (0-3 years) is the closest filter; cross-check against the company website.
