Travel plug Ukraine 🇺🇦

Do you need a travel adapter for Ukraine?

No, in almost all cases you don't.

Ukraine uses the same plug types as the Netherlands:

• Type C: two round pins, unearthed. The same type as in the Netherlands.
• Type F: two round pins with earthing clips on the side, also called Schuko. The same type as in the Netherlands and Germany.

Your Dutch chargers, phone chargers, laptop adapters and other devices fit directly into the Ukrainian outlets. So bringing a travel adapter is not necessary.

Which type of power outlet does Ukraine have?

Ukraine uses two plug types, both identical to those in the Netherlands:

• Type C: two round pins, unearthed. The standard "Euro" plug, also known from the Netherlands and almost all of continental Europe
• Type F: two round pins with earthing strips on the side. The same type as in the Netherlands, Germany and Poland

There are no regional differences within Ukraine. Whether you stay in the capital Kyiv, in Lviv, Odesa or Kharkiv, you'll find the same outlets everywhere as at home.

When is a world adapter still handy in Ukraine?

Although a travel adapter is not necessary for Ukraine, a world adapter can still be useful in a number of cases:

• you want extra USB and USB-C ports to charge several devices at once
• you have a shortage of outlets in your accommodation and want a compact solution
• you travel regularly and want one universal solution for all destinations
• you travel on to countries with different plug types

The Remodius World Adapter works in Ukraine and in 220+ other countries, with multiple USB ports so you can charge your phone, laptop and camera at the same time.

Power and voltage in Ukraine

The power supply in Ukraine is almost the same as in the Netherlands.

• Voltage: 220 volts
• Frequency: 50 Hz
• Compatible with Dutch devices: yes

So you don't need a voltage converter. Your phone, laptop, camera and other devices work without any problems.

Do keep in mind that the power supply in Ukraine is not always stable due to the current situation. Planned outages and power cuts occur regularly, especially in the evening and peak hours. A good power bank is therefore almost essential in Ukraine, so your phone and laptop stay charged during power cuts. Many hotels and accommodations have backup generators or battery systems to cope with this.
