Plug Type and Travel Adapter Guide for Denmark

Plug types used in Denmark

Denmark uses 2 plug types: Type E and K. Of these, Type E and K are not used in India, so you'll need a travel adapter for those sockets.

Type E

Type K

Type K: Two round pins, one semi-round pin.

Main Voltage in Denmark

Do I Need a Voltage Converter in Denmark?

Denmark runs on a main voltage of 230 volts at a frequency of 50 Hz. This is effectively the same as India's 230V/50Hz. You can plug any Indian device into a Denmark socket without a voltage converter, as long as the plug shape fits.

Will my Indian charger work in Denmark?

Your charger will work, but only with a plug adapter. Denmark uses Type E and K sockets at 230V/50Hz. Your Indian phone and laptop chargers are dual-voltage (the label reads 100–240V), so they handle Denmark voltage without any issue. The only question is plug shape — your Indian plug will not fit Type E and K sockets at all, so you must carry a travel adapter. You do not need a voltage converter — Denmark's 230V is the same as India's 230V.
