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

While wholesale activities can be conducted offshore, the nature of the business often involves dealing with local suppliers and customers. Contracts may be negotiated in Hong Kong, making it less likely to qualify for offshore treatment.
