About this list

Every proxy on this page is aggregated from publicly-available proxy lists. We do not scan, scrape, or collect these IP addresses ourselves, and we don’t probe or store anything about the devices behind them. We simply mirror results that are already public, as-is, on the basis of our legitimate interest in offering a free, transparent proxy directory (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR). If an IP address is yours and you’d like it removed, email [email protected] and we’ll take it down (Art. 21 GDPR).

About these free China SOCKS4 proxies

These are public proxies gathered from across the web and continuously re-verified by HProxy’s engine. They’re free and fine for quick, low-stakes tasks. But like all public proxies they’re shared, go down without warning, and are often already blocked by major sites. Always test before you rely on one.

About free China SOCKS4 proxies

Free China SOCKS4 proxies are public IPs that exit from China and match the SOCKS4 filter, all free to route traffic through at no cost, and this page keeps a live-checked list of them rather than a stale dump. Each entry both places your apparent location in China and meets the SOCKS4 requirement, whether that is a specific protocol or anonymity grade, so you get the right kind of proxy and the right location in one slice. Because they are free and need no signup, they are the fastest way to test a China socks4 scenario before paying for anything.

The honest trade-off is reliability. Like all free proxies, these China SOCKS4 IPs are shared by many people on infrastructure nobody maintains, so they are slow, they vanish without warning, and the popular ones are often already blocked. Narrowing to both a China location and the SOCKS4 filter also leaves a smaller pool, so on a quiet day there may be only a handful of live entries. Treat each one as disposable: verify it works right before you use it and never push sensitive data through it.

This page narrows the public pool to SOCKS4 proxies that exit from China, continuously re-verified by the HProxy engine. Each one is checked live for uptime, speed and anonymity, then geolocated to the city and ISP where possible, so the entries are current rather than a stale list. The verification removes most of the dead IPs you would otherwise paste from an old list, but because this is a narrow free slice you should still confirm any China SOCKS4 proxy yourself before depending on it.

Combining a China location with the SOCKS4 filter is handy when both matter at once, for example geo-testing from China over a socks4 connection, or light scraping that needs a China vantage point with the right protocol. For sustained China SOCKS4 access without dead IPs, HProxy paid proxies are the reliable alternative: real uptime and speed, pay by the gigabyte, no subscription. Keeping the free China SOCKS4 list for quick tests and paid proxies for real work is a sensible split.

Why combine China with the SOCKS4 filter?

Sometimes location alone is not enough: you need traffic to look like it comes from China and to use SOCKS4 specifically, because your tool, the target site, or your privacy requirement demands that exact combination. This page does both at once so you do not have to cross-reference a country list against a protocol or grade list yourself.

The narrower the filter, the smaller the live pool, which is the main catch with free combo lists. If you regularly need China SOCKS4 proxies and keep running out of working ones, that scarcity is the clearest sign it is time for paid proxies that always have capacity.

How to use free China SOCKS4 proxies

Pick an entry and note its IP, port and protocol, then set it in your browser proxy settings or as the proxy option in your scraper or HTTP client. Test it against a page that echoes your IP and location to confirm it is alive and reporting China before you rely on it. The download button gives you the whole China SOCKS4 slice as plain text so you can load a batch at once.

Because this is a narrow free slice, expect fewer working entries and more churn than a broad list. Pull every live candidate, rotate between them, and drop any that fail, rather than trusting a single China SOCKS4 IP to stay up.

Free vs paid China SOCKS4 proxies

A free China SOCKS4 proxy costs nothing and is fine for a quick test, but the small shared pool means slow speeds, frequent blocks, no uptime guarantee, and sometimes very few live entries at all. For a one-off check that is acceptable; for repeatable work the scarcity quickly becomes the bottleneck.

A paid proxy gives you reliable China capacity at the SOCKS4 level you need, on clean IPs with real uptime and speed. HProxy paid residential, ISP, mobile and datacenter proxies are billed by the gigabyte with no subscription, so you only pay for what you use while keeping the free list for experiments.

Frequently asked

Are these China SOCKS4 proxies free?

Yes. Every China SOCKS4 proxy on this page is free to copy and use, gathered from public sources with no signup. They are free in price but shared and unstable, so some will be slow or already offline.

How do I use free China SOCKS4 proxies?

Copy the IP, port and protocol from the table and set them in your browser proxy settings or as the proxy option in your scraper or HTTP client. Test against a page that shows your IP and location to confirm it is alive and reporting China, and rotate through several because this narrow free slice churns fast.

How often is the China SOCKS4 proxy list updated?

The list is re-verified every few minutes. Each China SOCKS4 IP is rechecked live for uptime, speed and anonymity, and dead entries drop off, so it stays close to current.

Why combine a China location with the SOCKS4 filter?

It is useful when both matter at once: geo-testing or localized checks from a China exit IP while also needing SOCKS4 specifically, for example a particular protocol or anonymity grade for your tool.

Why are there so few free China SOCKS4 proxies?

Narrowing the public pool to both a China location and the SOCKS4 filter naturally leaves a small set, and free IPs die constantly on top of that, so on a quiet day only a handful may be live. Paid proxies avoid this by always having China capacity available.

Are free China SOCKS4 proxies reliable?

No. Like all free proxies they are shared and run on unmaintained infrastructure, so they go offline without warning. They are fine for testing and one-off tasks, but not for anything that has to stay up.

What is the alternative for serious use?

HProxy paid residential, ISP, mobile and datacenter proxies give you stable China connections that are not pre-blocked, with real uptime and speed. You pay by the gigabyte with no subscription.

Need China SOCKS4 proxies that don’t die?

HProxy residential, ISP, mobile and datacenter proxies. Real uptime and speed, pay by the gigabyte, no subscription.
