Cabo Verde to Brazil: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) Adapter Needed
Heading from Cabo Verde to Brazil? 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 Cabo Verde and Brazil use Type C plugs, so your devices should plug right in. An adapter isn't strictly necessary for this trip.
Voltage is another key difference. Cabo Verde uses 230V while Brazil uses 127V. If your device only supports one voltage, using it with the wrong supply could cause overheating or permanent damage. Look for "Input: 100-240V" on your charger. Most modern phone and laptop chargers support this range.
Don't forget that Brazil 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.
