Cyprus to Burkina Faso: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) Adapter Needed

Heading from Cyprus to Burkina Faso? 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.

Cyprus uses Type G plugs, while Burkina Faso uses Type C and E. Since there is no overlap, you will need a travel adapter to plug in your devices. Make sure to pick one up before your trip or at the airport.

The voltage and frequency in Burkina Faso (220V, 50Hz) are close to Cyprus (230V, 50Hz), so your appliances should work without a converter.

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.
