Best Travel Adapters

Indian sockets use types C, D and M. Most countries you might visit use something else, so an adapter is one of the few international trip essentials you cannot improvise.

What to look for

The plugs you actually need
A universal adapter covering US/Japan (A), UK/UAE (G), Europe (C/F) and Australia (I) handles almost any trip.
Built-in USB-A and USB-C ports
Charging phone, watch and power bank from one socket saves space and hunting for outlets.
Fuse or surge protection
A replaceable fuse protects your devices from faults in older wiring.
Compact, grounded design
Heavy adapters can fall out of loose sockets. Check it supports three-pin (grounded) plugs if you carry a laptop.

Buying considerations

  • An adapter changes the plug shape, not the voltage. Check your device label says 100–240 V before using it abroad.
  • Hair dryers and straighteners are often single-voltage and draw a lot of power; many adapters are not rated for them.
  • Families should carry one adapter plus a multi-port charger rather than several adapters.
