Antigua and Barbuda to Burkina Faso: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) Adapter Needed
If you're heading to Burkina Faso from Antigua and Barbuda, it's worth checking the power situation before you pack. Different countries use different outlet types and electrical standards, so your devices may not plug in directly when you arrive.
Your Antigua and Barbuda plugs (Type A, B) won't fit Burkina Faso's outlets (Type C, E). You'll want to grab a universal travel adapter or one specifically designed for Burkina Faso before you depart.
The voltage and frequency in Burkina Faso (220V, 50Hz) are close to Antigua and Barbuda (230V, 60Hz), so your appliances should work without a converter.
Most modern phone chargers, laptop adapters, and camera chargers are designed to handle 100-240V input, so they'll work anywhere with just a plug adapter. Heat-producing appliances like hair dryers and flat irons are often single-voltage, so check before you plug them in abroad.
