Ireland to Germany: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) Adapter Needed
Traveling from Ireland to Germany means crossing into a different electrical system. Before you leave, take a moment to understand the plug types and voltage used in Germany so you can keep all your devices charged and ready.
The plug types are different between these two countries. In Ireland, outlets accept Type G, but in Germany you'll find Type C/F sockets. A travel plug adapter is essential for this trip.
On the voltage front, Ireland (230V, 50Hz) and Germany (230V, 50Hz) are identical. You shouldn't need a voltage converter for your electronics.
Rather than packing bulky converters, consider buying travel-sized dual-voltage versions of appliances you can't live without. For phones and laptops, all you'll need is the right plug adapter since their chargers almost always support worldwide voltage.
