Recommended Travel Adaptor for Latvia
We’ve tested countless travel adaptors on the road. After checking safety, durability, charging speed and value, this one stood out. It’s the adaptor we recommend.
Left your adaptor at home? Airports and local shops tend to have them. But having your own is safer, cheaper, and far less stressful.
Latvia is often part of a trip that also includes Lithuania and Estonia. It’s smart to check plug types — small regional differences can still matter.
Sockets in Latvia
In Latvia, you’ll find Type C and F plugs and sockets.
Type C
Type C sockets have two round pins and no grounding. Unlike Type G, they take a slimmer plug without an earth pin or fuse.
Type F
Type F sockets have two round pins with two earth clips on the side. UK Type G plugs do not fit into Type F sockets.
Do You Need a Voltage Converter?
Converters only matter when voltages clash. In Latvia the supply is pretty much the same as the UK’s, so you’re sorted.
It’s worth checking your device’s voltage rating first. A label showing ‘100–240 V, 50/60 Hz’ means it’ll work abroad without a converter.
Top Travel Essentials to Take With You
Beyond your adaptor, a few clever travel items can make life on the road so much easier. A luggage scale saves you money, a power bank keeps you powered up, and packing cubes keep your clothes tidy. They’re simple, practical, and genuinely useful.
