Azores Travel Adapters
Type C and Type F • 230 volts • 50 Hz
The Azores are an autonomous region of Portugal consisting of nine volcanic islands in the North Atlantic Ocean. Located roughly midway between Europe and North America, the islands are known for their rugged landscapes, crater lakes, and maritime climate. The regional capital is Ponta Delgada on the island of São Miguel, and the official currency is the euro.
The Azores follow the same electrical standards used in mainland Portugal, with mains electricity supplied at about 230 volts at 50 Hz. Wall outlets use European round-pin designs, specifically Type C and Type F sockets. Travelers from regions that use different plug types should bring a compatible or universal travel adapter. Visitors from 120-volt countries should confirm that their devices are labeled 100–240V before plugging in, or 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. Type F adapters are also known as Schuko style.
