Australia to Mauritania: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) Adapter Needed

If you're heading to Mauritania from Australia, it's worth checking the power situation before you pack. Different countries use different outlet types and electrical standards, so your devices may not plug in directly when you arrive.

Your Australia plugs (Type I) won't fit Mauritania's outlets (Type C). You'll want to grab a universal travel adapter or one specifically designed for Mauritania before you depart.

The voltage and frequency in Mauritania (220V, 50Hz) are close to Australia (230V, 50Hz), so your appliances should work without a converter.

Rather than packing bulky converters, consider buying travel-sized dual-voltage versions of appliances you can't live without. For phones and laptops, all you'll need is the right plug adapter since their chargers almost always support worldwide voltage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Australia uses Type I plugs and Mauritania uses Type C. Since these are incompatible, you will need a travel adapter.
