Introduction

Not every country uses 911 as its emergency contact number.

If you are in an emergency situation abroad, you will need to know how to contact the police, ambulance service, or fire department.

Main Item

In many countries the telephone network has a single emergency telephone number (universal emergency telephone number or emergency services number) that allows a caller to contact local emergency services for assistance.

The emergency number is typically a 3 digit number so that it can be easily remembered and dialed quickly. Some countries have a different emergency number for each of the different emergency services; these sometimes only differ by the last number.

Dialing Emergency Services from Cell Phones

Mobile phones, or cell phones, can be used in many countries with different emergency numbers.

This means someone visiting a foreign country does not need to know the local emergency services phone number(s), as mobile phones and the SIM card have a pre-programmed list of emergency numbers. When the user tries to set up a call using an emergency number known by a GSM or 3G phone, the special emergency call setup takes place.

Listed below is a handy reference table that provides of emergency services contact number(s) in different world countries.
