Dominican Republic to Costa Rica: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) No Adapter Needed

Planning a trip from Dominican Republic to Costa Rica? One of the first things to sort out before you travel is whether your electronics will work at your destination. Power outlets, plug shapes, and voltage standards vary around the world, and Costa Rica is no exception.

Since Dominican Republic and Costa Rica both support Type A, B plugs, you can use your chargers and appliances without a travel adapter. One less thing to worry about.

On the voltage front, Dominican Republic (120V, 60Hz) and Costa Rica (120V, 60Hz) are identical. You shouldn't need a voltage converter for your electronics.

Most modern phone chargers, laptop adapters, and camera chargers are designed to handle 100-240V input, so they'll work anywhere with just a plug adapter. Heat-producing appliances like hair dryers and flat irons are often single-voltage, so check before you plug them in abroad.

Frequently Asked Questions
