Samoa to Uruguay: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) No Adapter Needed

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

Both Samoa and Uruguay use Type I plugs, so your devices should plug right in. An adapter isn't strictly necessary for this trip.

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

A universal travel adapter with multiple plug configurations is a smart investment if you travel frequently. For Uruguay specifically, look for one that supports Type C/F/I/L outlets. USB charging ports built into the adapter are a nice bonus.
