Cabo Verde to Russia: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) No Adapter Needed
Traveling from Cabo Verde to Russia means crossing into a different electrical system. Before you leave, take a moment to understand the plug types and voltage used in Russia so you can keep all your devices charged and ready.
Both Cabo Verde and Russia use Type C/F plugs, so your devices should plug right in. An adapter isn't strictly necessary for this trip.
On the voltage front, Cabo Verde (230V, 50Hz) and Russia (220V, 50Hz) are very similar. You shouldn't need a voltage converter for your electronics.
Rather than packing bulky converters, consider buying travel-sized dual-voltage versions of appliances you can't live without. For phones and laptops, all you'll need is the right plug adapter since their chargers almost always support worldwide voltage.
