Chile to Benin: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) Adapter Needed

Getting ready for your journey from Chile to Benin? Electrical compatibility is easy to overlook, but bringing the wrong plug or forgetting an adapter can leave you scrambling at your hotel. Here's what you need to know.

Since Chile and Benin both support Type C plugs, you can use your chargers and appliances without a travel adapter. One less thing to worry about.

The voltage and frequency in Benin (220V, 50Hz) are the same as Chile (220V, 50Hz), so your appliances should work without a converter.

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

Frequently Asked Questions

Not necessarily. Both countries support Type C plugs, so your devices should fit Benin's outlets directly.
