Welcome Message from the Director of Fire Services

Welcome to the homepage of the Hong Kong Fire Services Department.

With the mission to protect Hong Kong people from fire and other calamities, we are tasked with providing efficient emergency services to save those in distress. These include fire-fighting and rescue, and emergency ambulance services for the sick and the injured. On fire prevention, we advise the public on fire protection measures, conduct fire safety inspections and take law enforcement actions to abate fire hazards. On fire safety education, we place emphasis on integrating into the community and actively engaging the public, in order to foster a close partnership with various sectors of the community to promote fire protection and enhance public awareness on fire safety. Through various publicity and educational activities, we disseminate messages on the importance of proper use of emergency ambulance services throughout the territory and promote better understanding among the public of the Department.
