Electricity & Plugs in Mons

Electricity Information

Voltage: Belgium uses 230V/50Hz electrical current, standard throughout Europe.

Plug Types: Type C (European two round pins) and Type E (two round pins plus grounding) are standard. North American visitors require converters/adapters.

Adapter Availability: USB adapters, multi-plug converters, and standard European adapters readily available at airports, train stations, and tourist shops. Multi-country European adapters accommodate various travel plans.

Hotel Information: Most hotels provide standard European outlets. Some luxury hotels offer US outlet adapters upon request. Hostels typically provide shared adapter access or charging stations.
