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 garments made from genuine leather as well as leather substitutes. It encompasses the entire manufacturing process, including cutting, sewing, and finishing of leather clothing items.
This classification includes
- clothing of genuine leather, manufacturing

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
LowThe manufacture of leather garments typically requires physical premises and equipment located in Hong Kong. Additionally, contracts for such manufacturing are often negotiated with local clients, making it difficult to qualify for offshore treatment.
