Sockets in Sapporo
In Sapporo, you’ll find Type A and B plugs and sockets.
Type A
Type A sockets have two flat parallel pins and no grounding. Unlike Type G, they don’t include an earth pin, which makes them less secure.
Type B
Type B sockets have two flat parallel pins plus a round grounding pin. Unlike Type G, the pins are thinner and there’s no built-in fuse.
Recommended Travel Adaptor for Sapporo
We’ve reviewed and tested a wide range of adaptors ourselves. Safety, charging speed and durability were all compared. This is the one we trust and recommend.
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.
Sapporo is often combined with travel to South Korea and Russia, especially the eastern regions. Best to double-check the adaptor info — plugs and voltage can differ.
Do You Need a Voltage Converter?
Some of your kit may need a voltage converter in Sapporo, since the local mains doesn’t line up with Britain’s 230 V.
Make sure to look at the voltage label before travelling. Devices marked ‘100–240 V, 50/60 Hz’ will operate abroad without any converter.
Top Travel Essentials to Take With You
Travelling can be unpredictable, but these little items give you peace of mind. A luggage scale means no nasty shocks at the airport desk, a power bank saves you when plugs are nowhere to be found, and packing cubes stop your things from getting muddled. We’ve used them on plenty of trips and can vouch for them.
