What should I do first in a serious emergency?

Move to a safe place, call the local emergency number, and share your exact location. Stay on the line until told otherwise.

What details should I tell emergency services?

Your location, what happened, how many people are affected, and any injuries. Speak slowly and repeat the address.

What if I do not speak the local language?

Use the phrase table on this page, or ask for an English-speaking operator — most emergency lines can transfer you.

When should I contact my embassy?

For a lost passport, arrest, hospitalisation, or if you need emergency travel documents.

What should I keep after a medical emergency?

Every receipt, the discharge summary and the police or incident report — insurers need all three.
