Are you in need of an ambulance (medical emergency), the fire brigade or police assistance? Call the European emergency number 112. It is free of charge. You can also use the 112 BE app.
The original free emergency numbers are also still in use. The European emergency number 112 will eventually replace these numbers.

Important! Deaf and hearing-impaired individuals, as well as people with speech impairments, can contact the emergency centers via SMS or email. Do it by sending 'contact' per text to 8842 or by e-mail to sms@ibz.fgov.be. You will then receive two phone numbers to send an emergency SMS to. One number for medical assistance and the fire brigade and one number for police assistance.
All these emergency numbers are free of charge.
