1. What is a business industry code?
A business industry code is a sequence of numbers encoded to represent a specific business industry. 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/QD-TTg, has a hierarchical structure comprising 5 levels, from general to specific:
| Level | Name | Coding | Quantity |

| Level 1 | Level 1 Economic Sector | 1 letter (from A to V) | 22 sectors |
| Level 2 | Level 2 Economic Sector | 2 digits (according to Level 1) | 87 sectors |

| Level 4 | Level 4 Economic Sector | 4 digits (according to Level 3) | 495 sectors |
