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 activity involves the retail sale of motorcycles, including new and used models. It encompasses transactions conducted through physical stores or online platforms, and may also include auctions specifically for motorcycles.

Licences and approvals

What this activity needs to operate

No sector-specific licence applies to this activity. It can be set up as a standard Hong Kong company without extra regulatory approvals. Premises-based or product-based permits can still apply case by case; Emerhub confirms the exact position during scoping.

Offshore profits claim feasibility

Low

This activity is inherently tied to Hong Kong as it involves retail sales and auctions conducted within the region. Contracts are typically negotiated and concluded with local customers, making it difficult to qualify for offshore treatment.
