Travel plug Brazil 🇧🇷

Which plug type do you need in Brazil

In Brazil, type N plugs are used, recognisable by the three round pins in a triangular arrangement. Some older buildings still have type C sockets, which are also used in Europe. If you travel from the Netherlands or Belgium, your type C and F plugs don't always fit well in the Brazilian socket. That's why you need a travel plug for Brazil or a universal travel plug to connect your devices safely.

Voltage and frequency in Brazil

The mains voltage in Brazil is 127 or 220 volts, depending on the region. In many hotels or apartments the voltage can even differ per room. In the Netherlands we use 230 volts, so in principle you can usually just use your devices, as long as they support dual voltage (100–240V). Always check this on the label of your device.

Devices with motors or heating elements (such as hairdryers, shavers or food processors) are more sensitive to voltage differences. If in doubt, use a voltage converter to prevent damage or overheating.

Charging safely in Brazil

A reliable travel plug for Brazil ensures you can use your devices safely without the risk of short circuits or voltage spikes. Choose a model that is compact, heat-resistant and has surge protection. Modern universal travel plugs also have USB and USB-C ports, so you can charge multiple devices at once – handy for travellers with phones, tablets and cameras.

Handy for every traveller

Whether you visit the beaches of Copacabana, explore the Amazon rainforest or take a business trip to São Paulo, with the right Brazil travel plug you always stay connected. Light, durable and easy to take with you, a small accessory that makes your trip a lot easier.
