Common questions
Do I need a plug adapter from France to Chile?
Yes. Chile uses Type L sockets, which France plugs do not fit, so pack a suitable adapter.
Will my devices work on Chile’s voltage?
Chile runs at 220V, 50Hz. Dual-voltage chargers (most phones and laptops) are fine; single-voltage devices may need a converter.
