Recommended Travel Adaptor for Tallinn
We’ve taken the time to research and test different adaptors on real journeys. Safety and reliability were our top priorities. The adaptor below is the one we recommend.
No adaptor with you and already abroad? You’re not out of options — many airports and local shops sell them. Still, bringing your own is the simplest way to avoid paying over the odds or ending up with something that barely works.
Tallinn is often combined with trips to Latvia and Finland. Worth checking the plug info before you go — the systems are usually similar, but not always identical.
Sockets in Tallinn
In Tallinn, 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 are only useful where voltages vary. In Tallinn, the mains is practically the same as back in Britain, so you won’t need one.
Before charging abroad, glance at the mains label: ‘100–240 V, 50/60 Hz’ confirms it’ll run safely without a converter.
Top Travel Essentials to Take With You
It’s not just about having the right adaptor — the little things matter too. A luggage scale helps you dodge those hefty airline fees, a power bank keeps you connected on the go, and packing cubes make packing (and unpacking) far less stressful. Once you’ve used them, you won’t want to travel without them.
