Afghanistan to Italy: Do You Need a Plug Adapter? No Adapter Needed
No. Plugs from Afghanistan (Type C and Type F) fit the sockets in Italy (Type C, Type F and Type L).
- Type C (two round pins (the "Europlug")): fits Type C, Type F and Type L sockets in Italy.
- Type F (two round pins with grounding clips on the sides ("Schuko")): fits Type F sockets in Italy.
Voltage
Italy uses 230V, compared with 220V in Afghanistan. That is within the same range, so your devices will work without a voltage converter.
What to pack
You don't need a plug adapter.
Good to know about Italy
Many newer Italian sockets are combination designs that take both Type L and Schuko (Type F) plugs.
