What plug is used in Seychelles?

In Seychelles, the standard power plug is Type G. The country runs on 240 volts at 50 Hz. That means every wall socket in Seychelles is the same shape — Type G, and your plug needs to physically match the socket to fit.

Travel adapters for Seychelles

Most modern phones, laptops, cameras, and tablets are rated for 100–240 V, so you only need a simple plug-shape adapter when the voltage matches what your charger supports. Because Seychelles runs at the higher 240 V range, travelers from the United States, Canada, or Japan must check the label on each device. Anything marked “120 V only” will be destroyed if plugged in without a step-down voltage converter. For a Type G socket, a universal travel adapter or a region-specific adapter is enough for chargers that handle dual voltage.
