Country How emergency calling works
Australia Emergency addresses are configured and routed by the carrier partner.
Austria All outbound calls to Emergency Services are routed to the correct PSAP based on the LAC/first digits of the caller’s number. In Austria, there is no national EDB. The PSAPs will contact the operator in case they are not able to get the address from the caller.
Belgium All outbound calls to Emergency Services are dependent on the address of the caller. The address registered to the number is stored in a national EDB. When a call is made to the PSAP with the CLI, the PSAP system looks up the address against the number and displays it to the PSAP operator.
Canada All outbound calls to Emergency Services are first screened to determine the current location of the user before being routed to the local PSAP.

Denmark All outbound calls to Emergency Services are dependent on the address of the caller. The address registered to the number is stored in a national EDB – when a call is made to the PSAP with the CLI, the Local PSAP system looks up the address against the number and displays it to the PSAP operator.

- If an emergency caller is unable to update their emergency location to the screening center, the call will be transferred to the PSAP serving the caller's registered address.
