Back to all travel tipsPlugs, Phones & Digital Uzbekistan
Before embarking on a holiday to Uzbekistan it pays to familiarise yourself with the type of electrical adaptor you may need to take and to plan how you will use your mobile phone and get online during your trip.
Electricity in Uzbekistan
In Uzbekistan the power sockets are of type C or F. The standard voltage is 220 V and the standard frequency is 50 Hz, which should be compatible with UK appliances.
Mobile Phones & Internet in Uzbekistan
Most of the big UK networks works should have some connections in Uzbekistan and if your phone is enabled for overseas calls you should be able to get a signal, at least in the larger towns and cities. Connections elsewhere may not be so good. Generally speaking, you will be able to access the internet using the wifi at your hotel and at some restaurants/cafes. If your phone is compatible then you may find it useful to pick up a local e-SIM card at the airport or in the capital city, which will give you access to mobile data.
