About electricity in Syria
Syria is 230V/50Hz with Type C, E, F, and L sockets. An unusual mix.
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.
Energy mix
War damage limits reliable data.
Practical tips
- A universal European adapter covering C/E/F/L is essential.
- Expect long daily outages.
- Bring high-capacity power banks.
