Do you need a travel adapter for Morocco?

Morocco uses the round-pin Type C and Type E sockets at 230 V, 50 Hz - the same as France, its historic connection, and most of continental Europe - so European travellers plug in without anything. Visitors from the UK, the US and Australia need an adapter, and Americans should mind the 230 V for single-voltage devices.

Do you need an adapter? It depends where you're coming from

Coming from	Plug adapter	Voltage
From the United States	Adapter needed	Check converter
From the UK	Adapter needed	Compatible
From continental Europe	Not needed	Compatible
From Australia / New Zealand	Adapter needed	Compatible

Plug adapters change the shape only. A "Check converter" flag means the voltage differs from your home country - fine for dual-voltage gear (phones, laptops, cameras marked 100-240 V) but risky for single-voltage appliances like hair dryers and travel kettles.

Practical tips for Morocco

• From continental Europe: your Type C/E plugs fit directly - nothing needed.
• From the UK: a Type C adapter is required; voltage matches at 230 V.
• From the US: adapter needed, and 230 V can damage single-voltage 120 V appliances.
• Riads and older medina accommodation may have only two-pin Type C sockets, so a simple C adapter is the safe bet.
