Travel adapter from Peru to Qatar

⚠️

Adapter Required

Yes — coming from Peru, you will need a travel adapter for Qatar. Peru uses Type A/Type B/Type C plugs, and Qatar 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.
