Angola to Benin: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) No Adapter Needed
Heading from Angola to Benin? Plug types and voltage standards differ between countries, so a little preparation goes a long way. Here's a breakdown of what to expect at the wall socket.
Both Angola and Benin use Type C plugs, so your devices should plug right in. An adapter isn't strictly necessary for this trip.
The voltage and frequency in Benin (220V, 50Hz) are the same as Angola (220V, 50Hz), so your appliances should work without a converter.
Don't forget that Benin hotel rooms sometimes have a universal shaver socket in the bathroom, but these low-wattage outlets aren't suitable for high-draw devices. For reliable charging, use the standard wall outlets with a proper adapter.
