Egypt Travel Adapters
Type C and Type F • 220 volts • 50 Hz
Egypt is a country in northeastern Africa located along the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea. The capital city is Cairo. Known for its ancient civilization and monumental architecture, Egypt is home to famous historical sites including the pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx, and temples along the Nile River. The country has played a central role in the history and culture of the Middle East and North Africa for thousands of years.
Egypt uses mains electricity supplied at about 220 volts at 50 Hz. Wall outlets use Type C and Type F sockets. Travelers from regions that use different plug types should bring a compatible travel adapter. Visitors should confirm that their electronic devices support 100–240V input or use an appropriate voltage converter if necessary.

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.
