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 includes a variety of real estate services that are not classified elsewhere. It encompasses activities such as real estate appraising, consultancy, and valuation services that do not involve surveying.
This classification includes
- real estate appraisers
- real estate consultancy
- real estate valuation without surveying

Offshore profits claim feasibility
MediumReal estate consultancy and valuation services can be performed remotely, but they often require local knowledge and interaction with Hong Kong clients. Contracts are typically negotiated in Hong Kong, which ties the activity to the local market.
