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 professional, scientific, and technical activities that do not fall under more specific categories. It encompasses services such as agronomy consulting, business and patent brokerage, valuation and authentication of artworks, weather forecasting, and appraisal activities for items like antiques and jewelry.
This classification includes
- agronomy consulting
- business brokerage activities (arranging for the purchase and sale of businesses)
- patent brokerage activities (arranging for the purchase and sale of patents)
- valuation and authentication services for artworks, independent of art gallery
- weather forecasting activities
- appraisal activities other than for real estate and insurance (for antiques, jewellery, etc.)
- miscellaneous technical activities n.e.c.

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
MediumMany activities in this category may require local presence or interaction with Hong Kong clients. Services like appraisal and consulting often involve contracts negotiated within Hong Kong, which limits offshore treatment eligibility.
