## Root Cause

Taiwan does not use 911. Dial 110 for police and 119 for fire and ambulance (119 covers both). The 24-hour Tourist Hotline 0800-011-765 offers English assistance. All are free.

## Dead Ends

- **Dial 911 in Taiwan expecting to reach emergency services** — 911 is not the emergency number in Taiwan. Police is 110 and fire/ambulance is 119. A 911 call does not connect to local police, fire, or ambulance. (95% fail)
- **Call 110 (police) for a medical emergency or fire** — 110 is police; fire and ambulance are both on 119. Using 110 for a medical case or fire forces a transfer. (50% fail)
