Gambia to Cameroon: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) Adapter Needed

Planning a trip from Gambia to Cameroon? 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 Cameroon is no exception.

There's no plug compatibility between Gambia and Cameroon. Gambia devices use Type G connectors, while Cameroon sockets are Type C/E. An adapter is a must-have for this destination.

On the voltage front, Gambia (230V, 50Hz) and Cameroon (220V, 50Hz) are very similar. You shouldn't need a voltage converter for your electronics.

When packing for Cameroon, bring at least one adapter per room if you're traveling with others. Airport shops often sell them at a markup, so ordering one online beforehand saves money. A small power strip from home can also multiply a single adapter into several outlets.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Gambia uses Type G plugs and Cameroon uses Type C/E. Since these are incompatible, you will need a travel adapter.
