Search companies with SIC 68209What SIC code 68209 covers
SIC code 68209 is the UK Standard Industrial Classification for Other letting and operating of own or leased real estate. It falls under SIC section L — Real Estate Activities, division 68. 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.
One of the most-used codes on the entire register. It is the catch-all for letting and operating property you own or lease, so it is dominated by buy-to-let landlords and small property-holding companies — many of them single-property SPVs. Expect a very high share of micro and dormant-style entities rather than large operating businesses.
