Travel adapter from Saudi Arabia to Syria
Adapter Required
Yes — coming from Saudi Arabia, you will need a travel adapter for Syria. Saudi Arabia uses Type G plugs, and Syria uses Type C/Type E/Type F/Type L, 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.
