Pick your home country to see if your plugs fit in Timor-Leste.

Travel adapters for Timor-Leste

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 Timor-Leste runs at the higher 230 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 C/Type E/Type F/Type I socket, a universal travel adapter or a region-specific adapter is enough for chargers that handle dual voltage.

Frequently asked questions

What plug does Timor-Leste use?

Timor-Leste uses Type C and Type E and Type F and Type I plugs and runs at 230 volts, 50 Hz.

Do I need a travel adapter for Timor-Leste?

Yes, if your home country does not use Type C and Type E and Type F and Type I. Most modern phone and laptop chargers handle 100–240 V, so a simple plug-shape adapter is enough.

What voltage is used in Timor-Leste?

Mains voltage in Timor-Leste is 230 V at 50 Hz.

Can I use my phone or laptop charger in Timor-Leste?

Almost always yes. Modern phone, laptop, tablet and camera chargers are dual-voltage (rated 100–240 V), so they handle Timor-Leste's 230 V automatically. You only need a plug-shape adapter, not a voltage converter. Check the small print on the charger to confirm.
