Zambia to Uruguay: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) Adapter Needed

If you're heading to Uruguay from Zambia, 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.

Good news: Zambia and Uruguay share compatible plug types (Type C). Your existing plugs should fit directly into Uruguay's outlets without any adapter needed.

The voltage and frequency in Uruguay (230V, 50Hz) are the same as Zambia (230V, 50Hz), so your appliances should work without a converter.

Don't forget that Uruguay hotel rooms sometimes have a universal shaver socket in the bathroom, but these low-wattage outlets aren't suitable for high-draw devices. For reliable charging, use the standard wall outlets with a proper adapter.
