Travel adapter from Brazil to United Arab Emirates
Adapter Required
Yes — coming from Brazil, you will need a travel adapter for United Arab Emirates. Brazil uses Type C/Type N plugs, and United Arab Emirates uses Type G, so the pin shapes will not fit any wall socket. The mains frequency is also different (60 Hz vs 50 Hz). This rarely matters for electronics but can affect motor-driven devices like clocks and shavers.
