Andorra to Switzerland: Do You Need a Plug Adapter? Adapter Needed for Some Plugs

It depends on your plug. Type C plugs from Andorra fit the sockets in Switzerland, but Type F plugs need an adapter.

  • Type C (two round pins (the "Europlug")): fits Type C and Type J sockets in Switzerland.
  • Type F (two round pins with grounding clips on the sides ("Schuko")): doesn't fit sockets in Switzerland. You need an adapter.

Voltage

Switzerland uses 230V, compared with 230V in Andorra. That is within the same range, so your devices will work without a voltage converter.

What to pack

Look for an adapter that accepts Type F plugs and fits Type C and Type J sockets. An adapter only changes the plug shape, not the voltage.

Good to know about Switzerland

Swiss Type J sockets are recessed, so slim two-pin Type C Europlugs fit, but the bulky round Schuko (Type F) plugs used in Germany and much of Europe do not.
