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 wallpaper, which includes the design, printing, and finishing processes used to create decorative wall coverings. Manufacturers in this subclass may produce various types of wallpaper, including vinyl, paper, and fabric-based options.
This classification includes
- wallpaper, 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 wallpaper typically requires physical premises and equipment located in Hong Kong. Additionally, the products are often sold to local customers or businesses, making it difficult to qualify for offshore treatment.
