Luxembourg Travel Adapters
Type C and Type F • 230 volts • 50 Hz
Luxembourg is the world's only country still governed as a sovereign grand duchy. The title dates to March 15, 1815, when the Congress of Vienna created the Grand Duchy from the former Duchy of Luxembourg. Guillaume V has reigned as grand duke since October 2025, the tenth monarch to hold the title since its creation.
Luxembourg is a small landlocked country in Western Europe bordered by Belgium, Germany, and France. The capital city is Luxembourg City. Despite its size, Luxembourg is known for its strong economy, historic fortifications, and mix of French and German cultural influences.
Luxembourg uses mains electricity supplied at 230 volts at 50 Hz. Wall outlets use Type C and Type F plugs. 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.

Do I need a voltage converter for Luxembourg?
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 Luxembourg'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 Luxembourg?
Most modern phone and laptop chargers are rated for 100–240V, so they work on Luxembourg's 230V supply without a separate converter. You'll still need a plug adapter, since the charger's US plug won't physically fit Luxembourg's outlets.
Are Luxembourg and US power outlets interchangeable?
No. Luxembourg uses Type C and Type F outlets and the US uses Type A/B. The plug shapes are different, and Luxembourg 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 Luxembourg use more than one plug type?
Yes. Luxembourg uses two plug types: Type F, a grounded two round-pin Schuko plug, and Type C, an ungrounded two round-pin Europlug that also fits Type F sockets. Bringing an adapter for Type F covers the widest range of outlets.
