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
MediumThis activity involves trading sewing machines and parts, which can be negotiated offshore. However, the nature of the business may require some operations or customer interactions within Hong Kong, affecting the offshore tax treatment.
