Canada to Bolivia: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) Adapter Needed
Traveling from Canada to Bolivia means crossing into a different electrical system. Before you leave, take a moment to understand the plug types and voltage used in Bolivia so you can keep all your devices charged and ready.
Both Canada and Bolivia use Type A plugs, so your devices should plug right in. An adapter isn't strictly necessary for this trip.
Voltage is another key difference. Canada uses 120V while Bolivia uses 230V. 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 Bolivia specifically, look for one that supports Type A/C outlets. USB charging ports built into the adapter are a nice bonus.
