Ethiopia to Papua New Guinea: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) Adapter Needed

Whether it's a business trip or a vacation, traveling from Ethiopia to Papua New Guinea requires a quick check on power compatibility. The last thing you want is to arrive and discover your charger doesn't fit the outlets.

There's no plug compatibility between Ethiopia and Papua New Guinea. Ethiopia devices use Type C/F connectors, while Papua New Guinea sockets are Type I. An adapter is a must-have for this destination.

On the voltage front, Ethiopia (220V, 50Hz) and Papua New Guinea (240V, 50Hz) are very similar. 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.
