Traveler Tips

Emergency telephone numbers around the world

Every country has its own emergency numbers — a few are used widely. Don’t rely on 911 or 112 auto-forwarding; confirm local police, fire, and medical numbers before you travel. With connectivity, T.R.U.S.T. Argus can place a call to the local medical emergency number for your location.

When you’re online, T.R.U.S.T. Argus uses your location to connect you to the local medical 911 equivalent — so you’re not guessing the right number abroad.
