Common questions

Do I need a plug adapter from France to Egypt?

Yes. Egypt uses Type F sockets, which France plugs do not fit, so pack a suitable adapter.

Will my devices work on Egypt’s voltage?

Egypt runs at 220V, 50Hz. Dual-voltage chargers (most phones and laptops) are fine; single-voltage devices may need a converter.
