Abu Dhabi Travel Adapters
Type G and Type C • 230 volts • 50 Hz
Abu Dhabi is the capital emirate of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), located on the Persian Gulf coast. The city of Abu Dhabi is the UAE’s federal capital and a major hub for government, business, and international travel. The local currency is the UAE dirham (AED), used throughout the UAE.
Abu Dhabi follows the UAE’s national electrical standard: electricity supply is around 230 volts at 50 Hz, and the most common wall outlet is the British-style Type G (three rectangular pins). Some hotels, older buildings, or multi-standard receptacles may also accept European two-round-pin plugs (Type C), but travelers should plan on Type G as the primary requirement. If you are visiting from a 120-volt region, confirm your device is labeled 100–240V before plugging in; otherwise use an appropriate voltage converter.

Plug types are listed because they are encountered in at least some installations. Presence may be partial, legacy, mixed, or situational. A travel adapter, also spelled travel adaptor, changes plug fit only; a voltage converter, sometimes searched as a voltage convertor, is needed only for devices that are not dual voltage. No plug type is excluded due to limited or declining use.
