Emergency Response

The public should be equipped with sufficient emergency response capabilities so that they would be able to ensure their personal safety in the event of terrorist or violent attacks. Below are some advisories which could help the citizens to enhance their response in case of emergencies.

When you are outside Hong Kong, if your personal safety is under immediate threat, please seek assistance from the local authority as soon as possible. Under a safe condition, Hong Kong residents who need assistance while in distress outside Hong Kong may contact the Assistance to Hong Kong Residents Unit of the Immigration Department.
