European emergency number

Facing a European holiday emergency? Just remember: 1 + 1 = 2

112 is the phone number to call emergency services throughout the EU, from fixed or mobile phones, free of charge.         
 
Imagine you are visiting an EU country and you are involved in, or witness, an accident. Would you know which emergency number to call? Fortunately, there is no need to look up the emergency numbers for the EU country you’re in. Just remember 112!

112 does not replace existing national emergency numbers. In most countries, it operates alongside the existing national numbers.

For information on how 112 works in the country you’re in, visit the Europa Information Society website.
