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 personal service activities that do not fall under more specific categories. It encompasses services such as foot baths without massage, operation of coin-operated machines like photo booths and weighing machines, social escort services, and valet car parking services.

This classification includes

  • foot bath service without massage
  • operation of coin-operated personal service machines (photo booths, weighing machines, lockers etc.)
  • social escort services
  • valet car parking services
  • miscellaneous personal service activities n.e.c.

Low
