Abu Dhabi Travel Adapters
Abu Dhabi is the capital emirate of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), located on the Persian Gulf coast. The city of Abu Dhabi is the UAE’s federal capital and a major hub for government, business, and international travel. The local currency is the UAE dirham (AED), used throughout the UAE.
Abu Dhabi follows the UAE’s national electrical standard: electricity supply is around 230 volts at 50 Hz, and the most common wall outlet is the British-style Type G (three rectangular pins). Some hotels, older buildings, or multi-standard receptacles may also accept European two-round-pin plugs (Type C), but travelers should plan on Type G as the primary requirement. If you are visiting from a 120-volt region, confirm your device is labeled 100–240V before plugging in; otherwise use an appropriate voltage converter.
