SIC code 53202 is the UK Standard Industrial Classification for Unlicensed carriers. It falls under SIC section H — Transportation & Storage, division 53. Companies record it at Companies House to describe what they do, and it is one of up to four SIC codes a company can hold.
Unlicensed carriers — the courier, same-day and last-mile delivery businesses that move parcels and documents without holding a formal postal licence. This is a huge mix of self-employed van and motorbike couriers, owner-driver franchisees and small fleets serving local rounds and gig-economy delivery work. Expect mostly sole traders and micro firms, often growing out of, or feeding into, the bigger logistics networks.
