Emergency services in Uzbekistan

A new unified emergency services number, 112, was introduced in 2024 to cover all emergency calls. The previous emergency numbers are still in operation.
Uzbekistan also has a 24/7 tourist hotline, the 鈥淐all Centre for Safe Tourism鈥�, on 1173, whose operators speak English as well as Uzbek and Russian, and can direct callers to locally available support.
