From South Sudan to Syria

Some plugs match

When travelling from South Sudan to Syria: Some of your South Sudan plug types fit in Syria (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.

Grid & history

Syria’s grid is severely damaged after years of war. Pre-war generation was a mix of gas, hydropower (from the Euphrates), and oil. Most areas now experience long daily outages.

Availability

Highly unreliable. Most accommodation runs on private generators or batteries.

Sockets & hotels

Type C, E, F, and L all in use depending on the building and era. A universal adapter is the safest choice.
