Belarus Travel Adapters
Type C & Type F • 230 volts • 50 Hz
Belarus is a landlocked country in Eastern Europe bordered by Russia, Ukraine, Poland, Lithuania, and Latvia. Known for its extensive forests and long history as part of various Eastern European states and the former Soviet Union, the country developed close political and economic ties with neighboring Russia. The capital and largest city is Minsk, and the official currency is the Belarusian ruble.
Belarus uses mains electricity supplied at 230 volts at 50 Hz. Wall outlets use Type C and Type F. Travelers from regions that use different plug types need a travel adapter for Type C or Type F; equipment that is not dual voltage requires an appropriate voltage converter.

Do I need a voltage converter for Belarus?
Only if your device isn't dual voltage. Most phones, laptops, and cameras are rated for 100–240V and only need a plug adapter for Belarus's outlets. High-wattage single-voltage appliances, like hair dryers, straighteners, or some CPAP machines, need a voltage converter, not just an adapter. Check the device label for its voltage rating before you travel.
Can I use my US phone charger in Belarus?
Most modern phone and laptop chargers are rated for 100–240V, so they work on Belarus's 230V supply without a separate converter. You'll still need a plug adapter, since the charger's US plug won't physically fit Belarus's outlets.
Are Belarus and US power outlets interchangeable?
No. Belarus uses Type C and Type F outlets and the US uses Type A/B. The plug shapes are different, and Belarus runs at 230V compared to 120V in the US, so a plug adapter alone is only safe for devices that already support both voltages.
Does Belarus use more than one plug type?
Yes. Belarus uses two plug types: Type C, a two round-pin Europlug, and Type F, a grounded Schuko-style plug with two earthing clips. An adapter rated for Type F will also fit Type C sockets, so either one will work throughout the country.
