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
MediumWhile export trading can occur offshore, the activity often involves contracts negotiated in Hong Kong. Additionally, the logistics and distribution may require local operations, which ties the activity to Hong Kong premises.
