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 camphor products, including camphor cubes and naphthaline balls. It involves the production processes related to these specific chemical compounds, which are used in various applications such as medicinal, aromatic, and pest control products.

This classification includes

  • camphor (including camphor cubes), manufacturing
  • naphthaline balls, manufacturing

Offshore profits claim feasibility

Low
