Transparency with regard to the means of access to emergency services Roaming providers shall ensure that their roaming customers are kept adequately informed about the means of access to emergency services in the visited Member State. The roaming provider shall inform the roaming customer, by means of an automatic message, that the latter may access emergency services free of charge by calling the single European emergency number ‘112’. That message shall also provide the roaming customer with a link to access, free of charge, a dedicated webpage, accessible to persons with disabilities, which provides information on alternative means of access to emergency services through emergency communications mandated in the visited Member State. The information shall be delivered to the roaming customer’s mobile device by an SMS message or where necessary by an appropriate means adapted to facilitate its receipt and easy comprehension every time a roaming customer enters a Member State other than that of the roaming customer’s domestic provider. The information shall be provided free of charge.

In Member States where public warning mobile applications are deployed, if a link to that application is reported by the visited Member State in the database established pursuant to Article 16, first paragraph, point (b), roaming providers shall include, in the message referred to in the second paragraph of this Article, the information indicating that public warnings may be received by a public warning mobile application. A link to the public warning mobile application and instructions for its download shall be provided in the dedicated webpage referred to in the second paragraph of this Article.
