Key emergency numbers to save before traveling to Cambodia:
| Service | Number | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Police | 117 | Limited English; ask hotel to help call |
| Ambulance | 119 | Use hospital numbers below for faster response |
| Fire | 118 | Limited coverage outside Phnom Penh |

Consular Services Available
Most embassies in Phnom Penh can assist with the following:
- Emergency passport replacement: If your passport is lost or stolen, most embassies can issue an emergency travel document within 1-3 business days. Bring police report, photos, and any ID.
- Notarization and document certification: Authentication of legal documents, powers of attorney, and statutory declarations. Typically $50-100 per document.
- Voter registration: Some embassies facilitate overseas voting registration (US, Australia, UK).

- Repatriation assistance: In extreme cases, embassies can help arrange emergency loans for return travel.
Embassies cannot: get you out of jail, pay your bills, provide legal advice, investigate crimes, intervene in court cases, or get you better treatment than local nationals. Their role is to ensure fair treatment and connect you with resources.
