Cabo Verde to Dominican Republic: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) Adapter Needed

Traveling from Cabo Verde to Dominican Republic means crossing into a different electrical system. Before you leave, take a moment to understand the plug types and voltage used in Dominican Republic so you can keep all your devices charged and ready.

The plug types are different between these two countries. In Cabo Verde, outlets accept Type C/F, but in Dominican Republic you'll find Type A/B sockets. A travel plug adapter is essential for this trip.

Voltage is another key difference. Cabo Verde uses 230V while Dominican Republic uses 120V. 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.

A universal travel adapter with multiple plug configurations is a smart investment if you travel frequently. For Dominican Republic specifically, look for one that supports Type A/B outlets. USB charging ports built into the adapter are a nice bonus.
