The present invention provides an elevator-calling control apparatus, an elevator-calling control system and an elevator-calling control method thereof, and belongs to the field of elevator control technologies. In an elevator-calling control process, the following steps are included: inputting an elevator-calling command; displaying elevator running state information and estimated time of arrival information of several elevators in a corresponding elevator group for a passenger to make reference, wherein the elevator running state information at least includes information that reflects a current crowding degree of the elevator; and selecting an elevator from the several elevators as the elevator that the passenger determines to take. The elevator-calling control of the present invention may facilitate a passenger to actively select an elevator that the passenger determines to take, which has good user elevator calling and taking experience and enhances the running efficiency of the elevator.
