What you need, by where you are coming from

  • Arriving from the United States or CanadaA plug adapter, and appliances marked 100-240 V. Anything single-voltage needs a converter.
  • Arriving from the UK or IrelandA plug adapter is enough - the voltage is the same as at home.
  • Arriving from most of continental EuropePlugs go straight in and the voltage matches. Nothing to pack.
  • Arriving from Australia or New ZealandA plug adapter is enough - the voltage is the same as at home.

Socket types, voltage and frequency are the nominal domestic supply as published in IEC/TR 60083 and the national standards it lists.

Azerbaijani sockets are Type and at 220 V, the same round two-pin outlet as Europe.

Sockets in Azerbaijan are Type and at 220 V, 50 Hz - two round pins in the European pattern.

  • A Europlug fits every socket, and Schuko plugs fit the earthed ones.
  • British, American and Australian plugs need an adapter.
  • Soviet-era sockets are unearthed and a little narrower, so a chunky European plug can be a tight fit.
  • 220 V behaves as 230 V does for European appliances; American 120 V-only equipment needs a converter.
  • Georgia and Turkey match, so a Caucasus trip needs one adapter at most.
  • Iran, across the southern border, also uses the same two round pins, so the plug is one of the few things that does not change in this region.
