Netherlands to Portugal: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) No Adapter Needed

Traveling from Netherlands to Portugal means crossing into a different electrical system. Before you leave, take a moment to understand the plug types and voltage used in Portugal so you can keep all your devices charged and ready.

Both Netherlands and Portugal use Type C/F plugs, so your devices should plug right in. An adapter isn't strictly necessary for this trip.

On the voltage front, Netherlands (230V, 50Hz) and Portugal (230V, 50Hz) are identical. You shouldn't need a voltage converter for your electronics.

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.
