EMERGENCY CALLS JAPAN

Emergency calls can be made using the Colt Voice Service. When an emergency call (i.e. 110 for police, 118 for Coast Guard and 119 for fire/ambulance/rescue) is made using the Colt service, the call is connected to the corresponding authority's answering point (PSAP = Public Safety Answering Point) nearest to your call location.

CALLERS' LOCATION INFORMATION

The caller's information as given below is notified to the appropriate authority in accordance with the Japanese laws to handle emergency cases promptly and smoothly.

The location information includes:

  • Caller's telephone number

  • Caller's street address (address of the location where the Colt Voice circuit is terminated)

  • Caller's company name (name of the corporation located where the Colt Voice circuit is terminated)

HANDLING OF CALLS MADE WITHOUT "CALLER NUMBER NOTIFICATION"

Even if you prefix "184" to withhold your number in regular calls, emergency calls will still transmit caller information to the emergency authority to facilitate response.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

  • The location where the Colt circuit is terminated is notified to the responding authority as the caller's location. Therefore, the emergency call service cannot be used when the location of the call origination is not the same as the location of the service as given in the service contract (location where the Colt circuit is terminated).

  • Even when the caller's location is notified to the responding emergency authority automatically, you may still be required to provide further details on the location (such as building name, floor, room number, etc.) for smooth and prompt emergency response.

  • Please also note that you are responsible for setting up your PBX for emergency calls and any cost associated with such set-up.
