NZ POLICE NEW NON EMERGENCY NUMBER

NZ Police recently launched a new non emergency number, 105. We’ve done this to make it easier to get hold of us in the event of non-urgent situations or ‘Things which have Already Happened’, which don’t require Police assistance immediately.

You can call us on 105 for all non emergencies, or you can go online at 105.police.govt.nz to report things like:

  • Lost property
  • Theft for a public place or car
  • Intentional property damage
  • Or to get an update or add info to a previous report

In the event of an emergency, always call 111 - Things that are Happening Now.
