Guinea-Bissau to Cabo Verde: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) No Adapter Needed

Getting ready for your journey from Guinea-Bissau to Cabo Verde? 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 Guinea-Bissau and Cabo Verde 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 Cabo Verde (230V, 50Hz) are close to Guinea-Bissau (220V, 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.

Frequently Asked Questions
