Recommended Travel Adaptor for Bali
We’ve carried out thorough research, tested adaptors on real trips, and compared price, quality, safety features and charging speed — this is the one that came out on top.
Realised abroad that you’ve left your adaptor behind? You’ll often find them in airports and shops nearby. Still, carrying your own is cheaper and more reliable.
Bali is commonly paired with nearby islands like Lombok and Java. Even within Indonesia, it’s smart to double-check plug types before you go.
Sockets in Bali
Bali uses 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?
You won’t need a converter in Bali, as the mains voltage is basically the same as at home in the UK.
Before you plug in abroad, make sure to check the voltage label. Devices marked ‘100–240 V, 50/60 Hz’ can handle different voltages, so no converter needed.
Top Travel Essentials to Take With You
Sometimes the simplest bits of kit are the most useful. A luggage scale saves your wallet, a power bank saves your battery, and packing cubes save your sanity when you’re digging through your bag. We’ve tested them, and they’ve quickly become our travel staples.
