Norway at a glance
| Region | Europe |
|---|---|
| Everyday prices | 84 on our price index (US = 100) |
| Power | Type C/F sockets, 230 V, 400 V, 50 Hz |
On cost, Norway is mid-priced for travelers: everyday prices sit at about 84 on a global index where the United States is 100. See how Norway compares to 179 countries.
On power, you are in luck: both Malaysian outlets and Norway's use Type C, so many of your chargers should fit as-is. Voltage differs too (230 V, 400 V there versus 230/400 V at home), so check for a dual-voltage label before plugging in. Full plug and voltage guide for Norway.
