Emergency numbers

No sign-in, no app, nothing to load beyond this page. Tap a number to call.

Official advisories do not agree on these. GOV.UK lists 122, 123, 180 and 126. Canada lists 112, 113 and 110. Neither page mentions the other’s numbers, so TUT prints both instead of guessing. If one does not connect, try the other set.

19654Tourism Ministry visitor lineNot an emergency line. The Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities answers visitors’ questions during their stay — which sites are open, and their hours. Arabic and English, seven days a week and on official holidays, 9am to 5pm.

TUT does not list embassy numbers: they differ by country and change. Look up your own embassy in Cairo now, while you have signal, and save it to your phone.
