Main Voltage in Tunisia

Do I Need a Voltage Converter in Tunisia?

Tunisia 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 Tunisia socket without a voltage converter, as long as the plug shape fits.

Will my Indian charger work in Tunisia?

Yes, but it depends on which socket your hotel has. Tunisia uses Type C and E sockets at 230V/50Hz. Your Indian phone and laptop chargers are dual-voltage (the label reads 100–240V), so they handle Tunisia voltage without any issue. The only question is plug shape — your Indian plug fits Type C sockets directly, but will not fit Type E sockets without an adapter. You do not need a voltage converter — Tunisia's 230V is the same as India's 230V.
