How to check your phone charger
Look for the "Input" rating on the plug, power brick or the handle near the cable:
- 100–240V ~ 50/60Hz – works anywhere in the world with a plug adapter.
- A switch marked 120/230 or 110/220 – dual-voltage: set it to match the country before plugging in.
- 220–240V only – fine in Austria.
Plugs in Austria
Yes. You'll need a European (type C/E/F) adapter.
- Type C: Two round pins (the "Europlug")
- Type F: Two round pins with earth clips on the sides ("Schuko")

Common questions
Can I use my UK phone charger in Austria?
Austria uses 230V, close to the UK's 230V, so your phone charger works normally. You'll need a European (type C/E/F) adapter.
What voltage is Austria?
230V at 50Hz. The UK is 230V at 50Hz.
Do I need a voltage converter for my phone charger?
No. The voltage is close enough to the UK's, so you only need a plug adapter if the sockets are different.
