Police, ambulance, fire and gas services are emergency numbers that you should always remember, even if everything is fine. The fact that you have never gone there before is good, but sometimes situations happen nearby when you need to help others, and sometimes yourself.
In such cases, it is necessary to remember such telephone numbers. We invite you to remember one of the most important – the police.
When thinking about how to call the police from MTS, we often go through the following numbers in our heads: 02, 112, 102. Which ultimately turns out to be correct? Let's look at these numbers in this educational material.
Emergency numbers for calling from a cell phone
Since childhood, everyone remembers emergency phone numbers, memorized by heart:
- 01 – fire service;
- 02 – police;
- 03 – ambulance;
- 04 – gas service.
However, these digital combinations are only relevant for calls from a landline phone. Cellular operators do not use two-digit numbers, so you will not be able to call the specified numbers from a mobile device.
Therefore, as smartphones became more widespread, new phone numbers were introduced in Russia for emergency communications:
- 101 – fire service;
- 102 – police;
- 103 – ambulance;
- 104 – gas service.
You can quickly contact police officers using the official mobile application developed by the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs. The program is available for download to owners of phones on Android and iOS platforms.
Recently, a single emergency number has been introduced in the Russian Federation. Today you can call the police, ambulance or the Ministry of Emergency Situations by dialing the combination 112. This is the Russian equivalent of the 911 service.
To call the police from your mobile you need to:
- dial 112 and wait for the voice menu.
- Press the number “2” on the keyboard.
- wait for connection with the dispatcher.
Back in 2014, the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs developed a mobile application. It makes it possible to contact the nearest police departments and obtain information about local police officers. If the department cannot be reached, the call is forwarded to the emergency telephone number. The application also contains a large amount of information: articles of offenses, data on fines, reminders for citizens, as well as news from the website of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia.
Since 2014, on the official website of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, citizens have been given the opportunity to download a free official application. If an emergency occurs, you can use it to call a police or precinct squad from the nearest department. In addition, the application has a function for automatically determining the location of the person who has applied, which will help law enforcement agencies instantly arrive at the scene of the incident. You can also submit an official missing person report online and view fines. To proceed with the installation, go to Google Play (Play Store) on your phone and type “Ministry of Internal Affairs” in the search, then click on the “Install” button.
To call a squad from the installed application, click on the “Quick police call” tab, after which your call will be sent to the nearest police unit. If the number is busy, your call will be automatically redirected to service 112 or 102.
To view the nearest police departments and ask for help, select the “Ministry of Internal Affairs Departments” tab in the application menu. On the interactive map you will see the branches closest to your location.
Responsibility for false calls
We emphasize that the work of emergency services is serious and important, therefore false messages from subscribers are criminally punishable. Thus, for a deliberately false call, the violator will pay a fine of 1,000 to 1,500 rubles. Besides. the hooligan will be sent to 100 hours of correctional labor. Statistics show that for every hundred in Russia there are 4 false calls.
If such a crime is committed by a minor, then his parents are responsible. Therefore, be careful and call services only when it is really necessary.

Providing unlimited access to the use of emergency numbers is one of the directions of mobile operators, supported by relevant government projects. Every mobile phone owner should know how to call the police from MTS, which provides an additional guarantee of personal safety and the opportunity to help other people in a certain situation.
The police number, like other emergency services, corresponds to a certain standard accepted throughout Russia and the CIS countries. In this material we will look at:
- standard methods of contacting the police;
- use of third-party software and functionality of mobile devices;
- Features of making an emergency call.
How to call the police from a mobile phone
How to call the police from a mobile phone
More than a year ago, a planned process of a long, phased formation of a common emergency call service began on the territory of the Russian Federation. Within five years, it is planned to create an emergency response system with a single call number from both landline and mobile numbers. The three-digit encoding system will replace the two-digit ones familiar from childhood: 01, 02, etc.
If you or others need urgent police assistance, a call from a mobile phone will save the situation. The combination of numbers you need depends on your cellular service provider and varies among different operators. To avoid confusion, find out and save in your mobile device the contacts of the police, ambulance, and Ministry of Emergency Situations, which the company servicing your tariff package provides for free emergency calls.
Let's consider cases of how to call the police from a mobile phone under certain circumstances:
- There is no money in the account. The cost of such calls is zero, so a zero or negative account balance will not be a hindrance in this case. Dial the required combination, and the company servicing your phone will immediately connect you with the “hotline” or the police department on duty in your city.
- If the SIM card is blocked or lost and the mobile phone is working, dial the single emergency number 112 through your telecom operator.
- If the subscriber is outside the network coverage area, such calls are made through any available cellular operators, who urgently perform the required call forwarding of the subscriber.
Emergency call 112
The introduction of a “Unified Emergency Services Number” will help improve the efficiency of interaction between emergency services and the speed of response to calls. This service is already operating in three regions of the Russian Federation, and trial (pilot) projects have been launched in several more. Experts note a 25-35% increase in the efficiency of joint activities of doctors, firefighters, and police.
How to call the police from your mobile phone through the unified emergency call system? Companies providing mobile communication services were among the first to switch to providing this service. The combination of numbers “one-one-two” is the emergency number. By dialing 112 and then pressing the Call button, you will be taken to the voice menu. To automatically connect to the police department, you must press the button with the number 2. The call is serviced free of charge in European countries (in roaming), as well as anywhere in Russia.
After connecting with the police officer on duty, you will be asked questions to clarify the details of the situation. Try to answer them accurately and clearly in a clear voice. State your details clearly, then briefly describe the circumstances of the incident. Try to indicate as accurately as possible the location of the event where the immediate presence of police officers is required.
Rescue 911
Famous from American TV series, books and Hollywood films, the unified 911 rescue service has been providing assistance to Americans in trouble for more than half a century. A convenient, easy-to-remember number, the ability to send representatives of different departments at the same time if necessary, and the constant expansion of the scope of services provided have earned universal popularity.
In the Russian Federation, a similar project is being developed and gradually implemented: Unified Rescue Service 112. Operators will provide services in four languages: Russian, English, German, French. It is planned to gradually expand language functions, taking into account territorial characteristics. For example, in the Far East, Chinese will be added to the list.
Calling the police
How to call the police from a mobile phone? This can be done in three ways:
From Beeline
Emergency numbers of the Beeline cellular operator have a three-digit codification. To make a call to the police, Beeline subscribers need to dial:
102 – for all types and configurations of mobile devices.
Megaphone
A free call for Megafon subscribers is as follows:
020 (02) – for devices that support three-digit/two-digit call options.
Tele 2
According to the data provided by the official website of Tele 2 in Russia, you can call the police from your cell phone by dialing the combination:
102 or 020 – for devices that support three-digit dialing options.
MTS
If you need urgent help from law enforcement agencies, and you are a subscriber of the MTS mobile operator, use a three-digit combination of numbers, then click “Call”:
102 – valid in the Russian Federation and abroad (free worldwide).
Emergency communication on MTS
Emergency numbers were invented at the same time for a reason. In accordance with Article 52 of the Federal Law “On Communications,” a universal system was developed. A subscriber of any operator can call 112 at any time:
- around the clock;
- even if there is no money on the balance sheet;
- when the net doesn't catch;
- when the SIM card is blocked.
When you call 112, you will be answered either by an answering machine or by a technical support specialist, namely the emergency service of your operator, in our case this is an employee of the MTS company. After reporting what happened, you will be redirected to 01,02,03 depending on the situation.
Now all that remains is to provide your location and brief information about the situation. By calling 112, you will be redirected to 02 - the police in the locality in which you are located or to the nearest one.
Every operator has number 112. It is the mobile company that ensures the activities of the emergency service, hiring employees and competently working with various situations.
In this regard, it is possible that the response method will differ between different operators: in some, a robot answers, and the subscriber needs to press the appropriate button, and in others, a live person who then directs the call where necessary.
Remember the police number - 102 from a mobile phone, 02 from a landline, and 112 is a single emergency number for calls from a phone anywhere and at any time.

Unified emergency phone numbers
How to call a doctor, ambulance or emergency help to your home from your mobile phone?
It is important to remember the numbers that you can call emergency services from a SIM card of any mobile operator. They look like this:
- Fire protection (EMERCOM, rescuers) – 101
- Militia (police) – 102
- Ambulance – 103
- Gas service – 104
- Information – 109
Calls to emergency services are completely free and are available not only with a zero balance, but even if the SIM card is blocked or is not in the phone at all.
Calling the Police from a mobile phone via 112 service
- Dial 112 and wait to enter the voice menu.
- Press the number “2” on your phone keypad.
- Wait for a connection with the police department dispatcher.
You can call the Police from a mobile phone at 112 completely free of charge, even when your account balance is zero, when your phone is locked and if there is no SIM card in it. You can also call this number for free from any other phone - a landline phone, a payphone on the street, at a train station or at the airport. As a rule, the connection time with the dispatcher depends on the network load and does not exceed several minutes.
If this number does not help you, then you can call the Police from your mobile phone using other numbers listed below.
Telephone numbers to call the Police
In the event that you cannot make a call to 112 or those listed in the table above, you can use alternative telephone numbers that still work. Each mobile operator used to independently set emergency numbers for its subscribers, so they are different. So, you can call the Police from your mobile phone using the following numbers:
- For subscribers of MTS, Megafon, Rostelecom, Tele2 and Motiv operators - 020.
- For subscribers of the Beeline operator, the Police telephone number is 002.
Using similar numbers, you can call the fire department, ambulance, gas service or information service - instead of 2, dial 1, 3, 4 or 9.
Hotline Motive
Refusing annoying advertising: how to disable pop-up messages from your mobile operator?
The Russian cellular operator operates in four regions of the country.

Motive is one of the five largest regional operators (MTS, Beeline, Megafon and Tele2).
The company provides cellular communications, mobile Internet and IP-VPN services. The only drawback is that the operator does not have 3G Internet. However, communication with the company’s clients is at a high level.
Users have access to different phone numbers, online chat and a feedback form. Separately, you can learn about the company’s services through the feedback form. Telephone number of the Motiv hotline Telephone number of the Motiv company contact center – 8-800-240-0000. Calls within Russia are made free of charge.

What number to call an ambulance in Moscow
How to anonymously call the police
To call an ambulance in Russia, as in Moscow, there is a single emergency phone number - 112. After connecting and describing the current situation, the dispatcher will redirect the call to the appropriate authority. This may be the emergency room, psychiatry and other authorities. The number was deliberately chosen to be short, easy to remember and can be dialed quickly in any situation.
It is important to know that number 112:
- Free for all mobile operators;
- Operates around the clock, 7 days a week, without weekends and holidays;
- Active in the European Union along with 911;
- Allows you to make a call even when the card is blocked, is not inserted into the device at all, or there is no network coverage.
You can call it in absolutely any emergency situation. If you don’t remember the phone number of a specific service, dial 112, the operator will make a decision based on the situation you described and transfer the call to the right department.
The first ambulance station during the Russian Empire was opened in Warsaw in 1897. The appearance of the first ambulances in Moscow dates back to 1898.
Ask your loved ones and friends for the ambulance number - it is quite possible that the answer will unpleasantly surprise you. The correct current numbers are published in our memo. Save them in your mobile phone's address book and ask your child to remember them.
The second way to call the police (formerly the police) or operational assistance
Based on the principle of the number 911, famous from American films of the 90s, a single number for calling immediate response services has been created in Russia - 112. Its use is not much different from a direct connection with the police dispatch service. Here is the procedure when using a single number:
- dial 112 on your device;
- after connecting to the voice menu, to contact the police, press the number two on the phone keypad;
- After completing these steps, you will automatically be redirected to the dispatcher line of the nearest police station.
The total time to make a call will not take more than two to three minutes and will depend on the quality and load of the network.
Attention! Just like to number 102, a call to the single number 112 is absolutely free, it can be made with a negative account balance or without a SIM card, as well as from payphones and telephone sets located in public places.
How to call the police from Motiv - all the ways
Since childhood, we have been familiar with the telephone number 02, which was taught at school, at home, on TV and radio. However, this is the number you should call from your home phone, but not from your mobile phone.
With the advent of mobile communications, numbers have become at least three-digit. All emergency numbers have 3 characters and no more, so that subscribers can easily remember them. There is information that previously it was possible to reach the police from MTS by calling 020.
This turned out to be extremely inconvenient, since each operator had its own combination: 020, 002. The confusion turned out to be quite large. Since then, 1 has simply been added to the standard number. And now the police phone number from a mobile phone, be it MTS or another operator, looks like this: 102.
102 is a police service. This is exactly the phone number that can be found on the MTS operator’s website on the official page with useful and emergency numbers. You can find all other combinations on the MTS website https://www.mts.ru/mob_connect/help/useful_data/useful_numbers/.
How to call the police from a mobile MTS
List of telephone numbers for calling emergency services.
There are several ways to call the police (formerly the police) from a mobile phone:
- You can dial the number combination 102 (the call is allowed for all operators).
- Add 0 to the usual 02 and call the police using the resulting three-digit code 020 (for clients of MTS, Tele2, Megafon, Rostelecom and Motiv).
- Call the universal number 112 and select code 2.
In what cases you won’t be able to call the police and what to do if the number doesn’t work
Those who know the emergency number well are not always able to get through and call the police. The reasons may be:
- The operator does not provide this service in full. When calling, this number will be busy for the subscriber.
- The call is made using the services of a third party. The speed at which information is received changes.
- It will not be possible to call the police if the employee who answers the phone is not particularly familiar with the city. In this case, it is difficult for him to determine the point where the person calling is located.
If the usual combination for calling the police does not work, you should change tactics.
All calls are received by operators, who forward the received information to the duty station of the area where the incident occurred.
To quickly receive a response from the dispatcher, contact the district city office immediately. To do this, press 0 on your smartphone keyboard, then dial the area code and service number.
The third way to call the police (formerly the police) or emergency services
Previously, each mobile operator, at its own discretion, chose a three-digit number to call emergency assistance. These combinations of numbers continue to perform their function for calling the police in the same way as the generally accepted number 102 and number 112. If the above methods of calling the police are impossible for some reason or there is no connection with the dispatcher, you can try the third method. Below is a list of operators and their corresponding number to call the police.
Three-digit number 020 - for users of the services of mobile operators MTS, Megafon, Rostelecom, Tele2 and Motiv.
Three-digit number 002 - for users of phones connected to the Beeline mobile operator.
Remember! Knowing how to dial emergency and police numbers correctly on mobile devices will help you reduce the time it takes to call for help in an emergency and help you avoid the unpleasant consequences of wasting time looking for a landline phone.
Everyone needs to know how to call the police from MTS - both children and adults. It is impossible to predict what will await us at a certain point in life, and what danger may happen in everyday life - at home, at work, on the way somewhere, etc. Since safety always remains a priority, at a critical moment, clients need to quickly find their bearings and call law enforcement. We have prepared an example of how to call the police from MTS from a mobile phone in this article. In addition, as the survey showed, not everyone knows which police number to call.
Other ways to contact the police via telephone
Keeping up with progress, organizations that guard order offer everyone to download a special application. With its help, in difficult situations you can contact them as quickly as dialing a number on the phone.
It will be useful to view:
In the event of an emergency, this program will help you contact the nearest police department. It also has an option to automatically determine the location of a person in trouble. You can report a missing person online through the app.
To download the program, just type in the Play Market and App Store search engine - Ministry of Internal Affairs or Ministry of Internal Affairs, then a matter of technology.
Police app on the App Store
Work on improving the options and interface of the application is ongoing and now all residents of the Russian Federation who are located in any corner of the country with Internet access can become users of the application. By the way, this is the only disadvantage of the application - without access to the Internet, you should use the standard emergency call dialer.
Application of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia
In any country in the world, law and order is monitored by one or another organization. For some it is the police, and for others it is the police, gendarmes or carabinieri. In order to avoid getting into trouble and turn to them for help in time, you should know their call numbers or have them in the phone book, maybe this will save someone’s life.

When a call is not possible
In some cases, the caller is unable to make an emergency call.
There are several reasons for this:

A call to the rescue service is possible even if the SIM card is blocked.
In such situations, there is a way out - the universal number 112. The above problems apply only to short combinations of individual rescue services, and you can always get help using a single code.

Recommendations for communicating with the operator
When talking to an emergency operator, you must describe the current situation in detail. You should try to remain calm and clear-headed, do not panic, and clearly report what happened.
This will help the dispatcher quickly understand the problem and send a team to help. The operator can ask clarifying questions, which should be answered immediately. If you are asked to stay on the line, under no circumstances should you hang up. You need to make sure that the information is accepted and the service leaves.
If you call 112, you should understand that this is a single help service that provides redirection. The subscriber must report the situation in which he finds himself (fire, gas leak, etc.) and explain how to get there.
After receiving the necessary information, the dispatcher decides which service needs to be sent to help the person who has applied.
Police, ambulance, fire and gas services are emergency numbers that you should always remember, even if everything is fine. The fact that you have never gone there before is good, but sometimes situations happen nearby when you need to help others, and sometimes yourself.
In such cases, it is necessary to remember such telephone numbers. We invite you to remember one of the most important – the police.
When thinking about how to call the police from MTS, we often go through the following numbers in our heads: 02, 112, 102. Which ultimately turns out to be correct? Let's look at these numbers in this educational material.
What and how to tell the operator
When calling the police, you should clearly indicate:
- location of the incident (address or landmarks);
- driving directions;
- phone number;
- Name;
- detailed information about the incident.
The operator may ask additional questions while emergency personnel move in your direction.
If the caller turns out to be a witness or eyewitness to a crime, it is important:
- remember the signs of the attacker (height, clothes, shoes) and report them during the call to the operator;
- provide first aid to the victim;
- Leave your phone numbers so that service staff can contact you.

Each appeal that contains information about a crime or administrative offense is accepted by the officer on duty, recorded in the Book of Applications and Reports of Crimes, and then immediately transferred to the operational response department.
After receiving a complaint, police officers are required to:
- arrive at the scene of the incident as soon as possible;
- stop criminal activities;
- eliminate all existing threats to the health and life of citizens;
- document all the circumstances of the incident, crime or offense;
- ensure the safety of traces and evidence of the crime;
- take other measures within the framework of current legislation.
To call the police, you must dial a three-digit number. Moreover, each operator can have its own: “003”, “030” and even “903”. Differences in the set of numbers cause confusion. Therefore, you should find out the police number in advance when calling from a specific operator’s phone.
- 010 - Ministry of Emergency Situations.
- 020 - police number.
- 030 - ambulance.
- 040 - emergency gas service.
U-Tel and BEELINE
Older devices support fast numbers. To call emergency services, add a symbol (*) after the phone number:
- 101* - call the Ministry of Emergency Situations.
- 102* - call the police.
- 103* - call an ambulance.
- 104* - call emergency gas service.
The first method is to call the police (formerly the police) or emergency services
Remember, or better yet, add a way to call emergency help in your mobile phone number. Be sure to do this on your children's phones. It should be noted that there have been no special metamorphoses with digital typing. And for ease of remembering, the same number is substituted - one. The list of numbers for emergency calls from a mobile phone currently looks like this:
- To make a call to the Ministry of Emergency Situations, dial 101
- to call the police (formerly the police) dial 102
- Emergency medical assistance is called by dialing 103
- to call the gas service you need to dial 104
- To make a call to the helpline you need to dial 109 on your phone
Both MTS subscribers and subscribers of other cellular operators can call these numbers.
Attention! There is no charge for calls to the listed organizations. It is possible to make a call both when the account balance is negative and when there is no identification module (SIM card) in the phone slot.
In what cases you won’t be able to call the police and what to do if the number doesn’t work
Those who know the emergency number well are not always able to get through and call the police. The reasons may be:
- The operator does not provide this service in full. When calling, this number will be busy for the subscriber.
- The call is made using the services of a third party. The speed at which information is received changes.
- It will not be possible to call the police if the employee who answers the phone is not particularly familiar with the city. In this case, it is difficult for him to determine the point where the person calling is located.
If the usual combination for calling the police does not work, you should change tactics. All calls are received by operators, who forward the received information to the duty station of the area where the incident occurred. To quickly receive a response from the dispatcher, contact the district city office immediately. To do this, press 0 on your smartphone keyboard, then dial the area code and service number.
To get through and get help, it is better to immediately dial the area’s emergency number. It is recommended to save such combinations in the phone book.

Alternative methods of communication
Also on the territory of the Russian Federation there is an alternative rescue service number - 112 (available from both mobile and landline phones). This is an analogue of 911, which is also actively functioning. Calls to such numbers are available even from a phone without a SIM card, and from a blocked SIM card. 112 line specialists, in turn, will connect you with the appropriate special service to resolve the problem.
