From Åland Islands to Pakistan
When travelling from Åland Islands to Pakistan: Some of your Åland Islands plug types fit in Pakistan (C). Bring a compact adapter for the others. Voltage matches at 230V, so a basic plug adapter is enough for most devices. Frequency is the same at 50Hz.

About electricity in Pakistan
Pakistan runs on 230V/50Hz with Type C and D sockets.
Grid & history
Pakistan’s grid runs on a mix of natural gas, hydropower (Tarbela, Mangla), and growing solar. Chronic capacity vs demand mismatch and circular debt cause scheduled load-shedding in many areas.
Availability
Reliable in major cities’ central districts; load-shedding (scheduled outages) is routine elsewhere. Hotels usually have generator or UPS backup.
Sockets & hotels
Type D is the older 5A round-pin; Type C Europlugs fit Type D sockets ungrounded.

Practical tips
- A universal adapter covering D and C is safest.
- Bring a power bank for load-shedding.
- Voltage is the standard 230V, and modern chargers handle it without issue.
