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 subclass covers the manufacturing of various leather and leather substitute products that are not classified under footwear or wearing apparel. It includes the production of items such as cases for calculators, cameras, and radios, as well as processes like cutting and impressing patterns on leather substitutes.
