Plugbert's take Europlug and Schuko: two pins for suitable ungrounded chargers, earth contacts for grounded equipment.

Do you need a travel adapter for Montenegro?

It depends on where your plugs come from.

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ From the United States

You need a plug adapter. Plugs from the United States (Type A and B) don't fit the Type C and F sockets in Montenegro. A Type C (Europlug) adapter fits the listed socket families there. For grounded devices, get a Type F (Schuko) adapter for a compatible grounded outlet instead; it does not fit every listed outlet. Socket variants can differ; check the actual outlet and adapter rating.

Montenegro uses 230 V, much higher than the 120 V in the United States. An input rating of "100โ€“240V" covers the listed supply voltage; you still need a suitable plug or adapter. For single-voltage devices, follow the manufacturer's guidance on conversion; using a suitable local device may be simpler.

Sockets you'll find in Montenegro

Will your devices work in Montenegro?

Sockets in Montenegro supply 230 V. Find the "input" line on each device or its charger. An input rating of "100โ€“240V" covers the listed supply voltage; you still need a suitable plug or adapter. Check that the input frequency also covers 50 Hz. An adapter changes the plug shape, not the voltage or frequency. For switchable devices, follow the manufacturer's instructions before plugging in.

  • Often rated 100โ€“240 V; confirm on the charger: phone charger, laptop charger, camera battery charger.

  • Check the label first: electric toothbrush, electric shaver, CPAP machine, hair straightener / curler.

  • Usually single voltage: hair dryer, kettle / coffee maker, anything with a heating element.
