Emergency Numbers for Warsaw

If you are in Warsaw and encounter an emergency, it is crucial to contact the appropriate services immediately. Below is the primary emergency contact number for the city:

• Emergency Services (Police, Fire, Ambulance): 112

The number 112 is the universal emergency telephone number that can be dialed free of charge from most mobile phones, and in some cases, landlines, in order to reach emergency services. It is available throughout the European Union, and it connects you to the local emergency service operator.

When you dial 112, you will be prompted to state the nature of your emergency, and you will be directed to the appropriate service (Police, Fire, or Ambulance). This number is critical for any life-threatening situations where immediate assistance is required.

Reminder: Emergency numbers are designed to address life-threatening emergencies. For urgent but non-life-threatening health issues, consider using telehealth services like Doctorsa to get timely advice and assistance without overburdening emergency services.
