Germany Travel Adapters
Type C and Type F • 230 volts • 50 Hz
Germany is a country in Central Europe known for its rich history, strong economy, and cultural influence. The capital city is Berlin. Germany is home to historic cities, castles, and forests, and has played a central role in European politics, science, and industry for centuries.
Germany uses mains electricity supplied at about 230 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.
