Sockets in Tajikistan
Tajikistan 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.
Recommended Travel Adaptor for Tajikistan
After testing numerous adaptors during real trips, one stood out. It performed best on safety, value and usability. This is the adaptor we suggest you take.
Abroad with no adaptor? You’ll find some for sale at airports and in town. Just bear in mind they’re often overpriced and not the best quality.
Tajikistan is usually combined with regional trips to Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan. Plug systems in Central Asia can vary, so it’s a good idea to check before you go.
Do You Need a Voltage Converter?
Voltage converters are only necessary if there’s a mismatch. In Tajikistan the mains supply is more or less the same as in the UK, so you’re fine.
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
