Emergency numbers in Malta, who to call in times of need
The importance of noting down the emergency numbers in Malta
Accidents can happen when we least expect it and it is good to know what the emergency numbers in Malta are, just in case. No matter if you are out at sea, in the middle of the countryside or on a secluded beach help can be there fast!
In November 2001 Malta adopted a Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan in order to better manage the disastrous situations. The Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan covers an analysis of possible dangers that can affect Malta and looks at the existing capacities of the Islands when it comes to dealing with those dangers.
The emergency numbers and services in Malta are very efficient and organised and printing this page is recommended as you never know when an accident can happen.
