Travel Adapter for Hungary: Do You Need One? (Comoros → Hungary)Adapter Needed

If you're heading to Hungary from the Comoros, sorting out the power situation is one of the easiest pre-trip wins. Below you'll find the plug types, voltage, and frequency used in Hungary, whether you need an adapter, and which devices are safe to plug in.

Do you need a travel adapter for Hungary?

Good news: you generally don't need a plug adapter. Both the Comoros and Hungary use Type C outlets, so your existing plugs should fit Hungary's sockets directly. A universal adapter is still worth keeping in your bag as a backup for future trips.

What plugs and sockets does Hungary use?

Hungary uses these power plug types: Type C (Europlug): two round pins, ungrounded, and the most widely used plug across Europe; Type F (Schuko): two round pins with grounding clips on the sides, standard in Germany and much of Europe. Outlets run at 230V and 50Hz. Since the Comoros also uses Type C, your plugs already match.

Voltage and frequency in Hungary

Hungary runs on 230V at 50Hz, very close to the Comoros (220V, 50Hz). That means voltage isn't a concern here, since your appliances won't be over- or under-powered, so no voltage converter is needed.

Will your devices work in Hungary?

Phones, tablets, laptops, and camera chargers are nearly always dual-voltage (100-240V), so they work in Hungary with just your existing plug, and no converter is required. Even heat-based appliances like hair dryers and straighteners should run fine given the matching 230V supply, though it's always worth a quick label check.

What travel adapter should you buy for Hungary?

Because the Comoros and Hungary share Type C outlets, you don't need a special adapter for this trip. A universal travel adapter is still a smart, inexpensive backup if you plan to travel elsewhere, and the better ones add USB-C fast charging to free up your charger.

Tips for charging your devices in Hungary

Pack at least one adapter per traveler, and consider a small power strip from home, which turns a single Hungary outlet into several. Ordering online before you fly is almost always cheaper than airport kiosks.
