Emergency contact information

The emergency number “112” is the only emergency number you can call for free in all

European countries if you need urgent help from the fire brigade, a medical team or the police.

When you call the emergency number 112 in Belgium for the police, you are redirected to the

emergency number 101. Because of this, valuable time may be wasted. We therefore advise

you to directly call the emergency number 101 for urgent police assistance.
