The "112 Latvia" app is two years old! A digital shield in every citizen's smartphone

Ministry of the Interior

This year marks the second anniversary since the "112 Latvia" mobile app officially began its operations. During this time, it has become an indispensable tool for emergency services and a guarantor of safety for thousands of residents.

As a reminder, the "112 Latvia" app is more than just a communication tool—it is a comprehensive safety platform. It not only provides the ability to quickly contact the 112 emergency center but also allows users to receive alerts about potential threats and obtain immediate information on the correct actions to take in various crisis situations. Crucially, the app integrates the latest information on the locations of public shelters and safe havens across Latvia, enabling citizens to navigate their surroundings swiftly even in critical moments.

Active use of the app and the advantages it offers—such as transmitting precise location data to rescuers—can be decisive in saving lives. Therefore, we invite every resident and guest of Latvia not to delay caring for their own and their loved ones' safety: download the app to your smartphone and explore its features today.

An EU Investment in Public Protection

It is important to note that the "112 Latvia" app was developed as part of an ambitious modernization of the internal affairs sector, and its creation was made possible thanks to co-financing from European Union funds.

This is a vivid example of how EU fund investments provide direct and tangible benefits to every resident of Latvia. Thanks to targeted EU financial support, Latvia is able to implement world-class technological solutions, strengthening national internal security and creating a more resilient and protected society. EU funds serve as an accelerator for our country’s development and security, turning smart ideas into real-world protection.
