Common questions

Do I need a plug adapter from Germany to Chile?

Yes. Chile uses Type L sockets, which Germany 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.
