What number do I call for help at sea in Tunisia?+
In Tunisia, call 193 and ask for the Coastguard. On the radio: MAYDAY on VHF channel 16, or a DSC distress alert on channel 70.
Does 112 work in Tunisia?+
The general emergency number in Tunisia is 197. Many mobile phones also pass 112 on to the local emergency service, but we found no official confirmation for Tunisia. In a sea emergency, call 193.
Which rescue centre is responsible for me?+
The one whose search-and-rescue area you are in — not the country of your SIM card. Near borders that can change during a trip; the VesselSOS app picks it from your GPS position.
