梭織布料漂染
Why 6 digits?
HSIC subclasses are 6 digits. The first four match the international ISIC class; Hong Kong adds a two-digit local suffix for finer detail, especially across its import and export trade, so a code steps from a 4-digit class straight to a 6-digit subclass. More on the HSIC structure.
This activity involves the bleaching and dyeing processes specifically applied to woven fabrics made from various materials, including cotton, synthetic fibers, and wool. It encompasses the treatment of both standard and non-standard woven fabrics to achieve desired colors and finishes.
This classification includes
- woven fabrics of cotton, bleaching and dyeing
- woven fabrics of synthetic fibres, bleaching and dyeing
- woven woollen fabrics, bleaching and dyeing
- woven fabrics n.e.c., bleaching and dyeing
Licences and approvals
What this activity needs to operate
No sector-specific licence applies to this activity. It can be set up as a standard Hong Kong company without extra regulatory approvals. Premises-based or product-based permits can still apply case by case; Emerhub confirms the exact position during scoping.
Offshore profits claim feasibility
LowThis activity is typically performed in Hong Kong where the facilities and equipment are located. Contracts for services are often negotiated locally, and the end products are usually sold to local customers, making it difficult to qualify for offshore treatment.
