Beijing Emergency Hotlines (24/7, Some with English)
Police: 110. This is the universal emergency number in China. Operators speak Chinese only. If you call 110, immediately say 'English please' (请说英语 - qing shuo ying yu). Some operators can connect you to an English-speaking line. If not, hand the phone to a Chinese speaker nearby. Better approach: go to the nearest police station. Every Beijing police station has at least one English-speaking officer (since the 2022 Olympics). Show the Chinese text: '我需要帮助，请帮我找一位会说英语的警官' (I need help, please find an English-speaking officer). Ambulance: 120. Chinese-only operators. Best approach: do not call 120 yourself. Instead: call your hotel front desk and ask them to call an ambulance. OR go directly to Beijing United Family Hospital emergency room. OR call BJU at 4008-919191 (English operator) and ask them to dispatch an ambulance. Fire: 119. Rarely needed by tourists. Chinese-only operators. Traffic accidents: 122. For reporting traffic accidents. Chinese-only. Emergency translation service: 12345. This is the Beijing government service hotline. Some operators speak English. Not for emergencies but useful for non-urgent issues. Save the Hidden Beijing emergency phrase: '请帮我报警' (qing bang wo bao jing) = Please help me call the police. '我需要救护车' (wo xu yao jiu hu che) = I need an ambulance. Print these on a card and keep them in your wallet.
