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 retail sale of various types of rope, cord, and netting appliances. It includes the sale of cordage, recreational fishing nets, and twine, catering to both general consumers and specific recreational needs.
This classification includes
- cordage, retail sale
- fishing nets for recreation, retail sale
- rope, retail sale
- twine, retail sale
