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 production of silkscreen printing materials specifically designed for various printing applications, excluding those related to textile stencilling and printing.

Offshore profits claim feasibility
MediumWhile the manufacturing of silkscreens can be conducted in Hong Kong, the end products are typically sold to clients outside of Hong Kong. However, the activity itself is tied to local premises and may involve local customers.
