Emergency numbers in China
✅ Updated May 2026
Save these: 120 = ambulance, 110 = police, 119 = fire, 122 = traffic accident. Calls are free from any phone. 120 operators may speak limited English — state your exact location first and clearly, or ask a nearby local to help; sharing your live location from a map app helps responders find you. For non-emergencies, an international hospital's front desk can advise in English.
If it is serious, call 120 and seek professional care immediately.
