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 wooden items intended for domestic use, including utensils, household articles, and decorative items such as jewellery boxes. It encompasses a range of products like wooden fans, toothpicks, ancestral tablets, bird cases, blackboards, coffins, and various wooden handicrafts.

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 inherently tied to Hong Kong as it involves manufacturing wooden products that are typically sold within the local market. Contracts for these goods are often negotiated and fulfilled in Hong Kong, making it difficult to qualify for offshore treatment.
