A quick reference of nationwide emergency numbers (Police 15, Rescue 1122, Edhi 115, Fire 16, Motorway Police 130, gas emergencies 1199) and official SMS services for CNIC verification (8300), SIMs registered to a CNIC (668), phone IMEI status (8484) and FBR active taxpayer status (9966).

What does this tool do?

A quick-reference directory of Pakistan’s emergency and service helplines — Rescue 1122, Police 15, Edhi, motorway police, and key SMS short codes — with tap-to-call on phones and province notes where numbers differ.

Like all tools here it is free without sign-up, and where the task involves personal numbers, everything stays in your browser — used once for your lookup and never stored or shared.

How do I use this tool?

Have your reference details ready (bill, number or document), then follow the steps — the whole task takes under a minute.

  1. Open the tool — it loads ready to use, no setup needed.
  2. Follow the on-screen controls; results update live.
  3. Copy or download the result when you are happy.

How does it work?

Numbers are compiled from official sources (Punjab Emergency Service, NHA, PTA) and organised by category: emergency, police, health, utilities and services. Tap-to-call links dial directly on mobile; the page works offline after loading for emergencies without data.

Formats follow the Pakistani standards in use today — the digit groupings, number formats and company structures your bills and documents actually carry. Where standards vary (a classic with local units), the tool exposes the choice instead of guessing.

Use cases in Pakistan

Every Pakistani should know 15 (police) and 1122 (rescue) — this page keeps them plus motorway police (130), Edhi (115), and useful codes (SIM info 668, complaint 0800 numbers) one tap away. Save it to your home screen; emergencies are the wrong time to search.

Tasks like this recur on fixed rhythms — monthly bills, admission seasons, Ramazan, tax time — and each recurrence is smoother with the right helper bookmarked. It is a small thing that makes a bureaucratic process feel manageable.

Limitations

Numbers change occasionally — verify critical ones periodically against official sources. Coverage varies: 1122’s full service is Punjab-wide with other provinces catching up; some numbers are province-specific.

Official sources remain authoritative: this helper simplifies the routine, but disputes, certifications and legal matters belong with the issuing authority. When a figure looks off, verify against the official record before acting.

Frequently asked questions

What is Pakistan’s emergency number?

1122 for rescue/ambulance (Rescue 1122), 15 for police. Save both. When a figure affects money or official records, cross-check against the official source once — the tool simplifies the routine, but the authority’s record is final.

Motorway emergency number?

130 — National Highway & Motorway Police, for breakdowns and emergencies on motorways. Keep the reference numbers (bill, consumer, account) handy in your phone’s notes; this task recurs, and retyping from paper each time wastes the minutes the tool saves.

How do I check SIMs on my CNIC?

Send your CNIC number (no dashes) via SMS to 668 — the PTA reply lists registered SIMs. If something looks off, re-enter the inputs carefully before assuming an error — most surprises trace back to a mistyped digit.

Does it work offline?

After the first load, yes — the numbers are on the page itself, no data needed in an emergency. When a figure affects money or official records, cross-check against the official source once — the tool simplifies the routine, but the authority’s record is final.

Is my data uploaded or stored?

No. This tool runs entirely in your browser — what you type or paste never leaves your device, is never sent to a server, and is never stored. Closing the tab removes all trace. Keep the reference numbers (bill, consumer, account) handy in your phone’s notes; this task recurs, and retyping from paper each time wastes the minutes the tool saves.

Is it really free? Do I need an account?

Yes, free, and no account needed. Open the page and use it — no sign-up, no trial, no watermark on results. If something looks off, re-enter the inputs carefully before assuming an error — most surprises trace back to a mistyped digit.
