REST integration

Use the current emergency-calling API guide for registration, updates, status and cancellation. Registration alone does not purchase a phone number or guarantee that activation has completed.

European country coverage

The current coverage catalog includes 27 European countries and the number types below. Availability is checked for the individual number, account and service address; a country listing does not enable emergency calls automatically.

110 is country-specific. In Germany it reaches police; in Norway it reaches the fire service. Norway uses 112 for police and 113 for ambulance. Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia have the separate local numbers shown below.

About the European 112 number · Germany: 110 and 112 · Norwegian police emergency information

Provision first, then confirm activation

  1. Select an eligible number and provide the actual end user’s identity and valid service address.

  2. Complete country-specific requirements and any document or address verification.

  3. Wait for the registration to become active, then configure the approved calling route and caller number.

  4. Keep the registered address current and follow the documented non-emergency verification procedure.

Do not place a test call to a live emergency number. Use only the verification procedure provided for your service; the North American test process must not be assumed to apply in Europe.

Before you rely on the service

Power, internet connectivity, equipment configuration and an accurate registered address affect internet-based emergency calling. Calls can fail or be delayed when a service is inactive, an address is incorrect or the calling setup changes. Review the registered-location, nomadic-use and service limitations before activation.

European pricing and minimum terms depend on the country and number type. Review the account quote before registering; the North American E911 price is not a Europe-wide rate.
