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.

Offshore profits claim feasibility

Medium

This activity often requires physical presence in Hong Kong for repairs and maintenance. Contracts are usually negotiated with local clients, making it less feasible for offshore treatment. The nature of the services ties them closely to the local market.
