When traveling to Argentina, you’ll want to ensure you’re as well-prepared as possible. It’s important to consider the use of power outlets and plugs in your destination country. Not every country uses the same type of outlets, and of course, you’ll want to be able to use your phone, camera, shaver, and other electronic devices. Additionally, some countries have different voltage levels or frequencies. You may need a travel adapter, also known as a universal adapter. In this article, we provide all the information you need to travel to Argentina with peace of mind!

In the United States, Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, and European countries, the following plug types are used:

• United States and Canada: Type A and B plugs. These are not compatible with outlets in Argentina.
• Australia: Type I plugs. These are compatible with type I outlets in Argentina.
• United Kingdom: Type G plugs. These fit only in type G outlets and are not compatible with outlets in Argentina.
• European countries: Type C, E, and F plugs. Type C, E, and F plugs are compatible with outlets in Argentina.

In Argentina, the standard plug types are Type C and Type I. If you are traveling from a country that uses a different plug type, you will need a travel adapter. We recommend investing in a universal world adapter, which can also be used for future trips to other destinations. At the bottom of the page, we provide some suggestions!
