European Definition
This shall include floods from rivers, mountain torrents, Mediterranean ephemeral water courses, and floods from the sea in coastal areas, and may exclude floods from sewerage systems; ‘flood risk’ means the combination of the probability of a flood event and of the potential adverse consequences for human health, the environment, cultural heritage and economic activity associated with a flood event.
International definitions

National Definitions
Austria
Diese umfasst Überflutungen durch Flüsse, Gebirgsbäche, zeitweise ausgesetzte Wasserströme im Mittelmeerraum sowie durch in Küstengebiete eindringendes Meerwasser; Überflutungen aus Abwassersystemen können ausgenommen werden.
Bangladesh
Flash flood occurs only in the northeastern Bangladesh in the period pre- to post-monsoon forced by intense rainfall in the Meghalaya Hills and in parts of eastern Bangladesh in the post-monsoon. Local rainfall flood is, as the name states, forced by local heavy rainfall over a location inside Bangladesh. Storm surge flood is a coastal phenomenon forced by cyclones hitting the Bangladeshi coastline.
Belgium
Deze term bestrijkt overstromingen door rivieren, bergstromen, efemere waterlopen in het Middellandse-Zeegebied, en overstromingen door de zee in kustgebieden, met mogelijke uitsluiting van overstromingen door rioolstelsels.
Cette notion recouvre les inondations dues aux crues des rivières, des torrents de montagne et des cours d’eau intermittents méditerranéens ainsi que les inondations dues à la mer dans les zones côtières et elle peut exclure les inondations dues aux réseaux d’égouts.
Bulgaria
Това включва наводнения от реки, планински потоци, средиземноморски сезонни водни течения и предизвикани от морето наводнения на крайбрежни райони и може да изключва наводнения от канализационните системи.
Croatia
To uključuje poplave koje uzrokuju rijeke, gorski potoci, sredozemni bujični vodotoci te poplave uzrokovane morem na priobalnim područjima, a može isključivati poplave iz kanalizacijskih sustava.
Cyprus

Czech Republic
Tento pojem zahrnuje povodně způsobené řekami, horskými bystřinami, občasnými vodními toky ve Středomoří a záplavy z moří v pobřežních oblastech a nemusí zahrnovat povodně způsobené kanalizačními systémy.

Finland
Tähän sisältyvät jokien ja vuoristopurojen aiheuttamat tulvat, Välimeren alueen ajoittaisvirrat sekä merenpinnan nousu rannikkoalueilla; sen ulkopuolelle voivat jäädä viemäritulvat.
