Checking plug and voltage compatibility
Power adapter compatibility check for traveling from Canada to Brazil
You'll need a plug adapter (A/B to C/N). β Voltage is compatible (120V β 127V)
Canada
120V
Brazil
127V
No. Your Type A and Type B plugs from Canada will not fit Brazil's sockets. You'll need a travel adapter.
The voltage in Brazil is 127V. This is higher than Canada's 120V. Check if your device supports dual voltage (100-240V).
No, you don't need a voltage converter. The voltage difference (120V to 127V) is safe for most modern devices, especially laptops, phones, and chargers which typically support 100-240V dual voltage.
Brazil uses Type C, N sockets. You will see these socket types in hotels, airports, and public places throughout the country.
Yes, most modern electronics (iPhones, laptops, tablets, cameras) are dual-voltage (110V-240V), so they will work in Brazil. Since Brazil uses 127V (within the 100-240V range), your device will work fine. You'll need a plug adapter to fit the wall socket.
You can buy a Type C travel adapter online (Amazon, eBay) or at the airport. Look for adapters specifically designed for Brazil or universal adapters that include Type C. Check our Amazon link above for the best options.
If you don't use an adapter, your plug physically won't fit into Brazil's sockets. Additionally, if the voltage is different (120V vs 127V) and your device isn't dual-voltage, you could permanently damage your device or cause a fire hazard. Always use the appropriate adapter and check voltage compatibility.
