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.
Estonia is often combined with trips to Latvia and Finland. It’s worth checking the plug info — even nearby countries can have slight differences.
Sockets in Estonia
Estonia 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?
A voltage converter only helps if the supply is different. In Estonia the mains voltage lines up with the UK, so there’s no need.
Always check the voltage label before you plug in abroad. If it reads ‘100–240 V, 50/60 Hz’, your kit will work just fine without a converter — most modern laptops, tablets and chargers already do.
Top Travel Essentials to Take With You
Travelling light doesn’t mean leaving the essentials behind. A luggage scale is a lifesaver at check-in, a power bank makes sure your gadgets are always ready, and packing cubes keep everything neat and easy to find. We’ve used them on countless trips, and they’ve earned their spot in our bags every time.
