Ireland to Sao Tome and Principe: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) Adapter Needed
Heading from Ireland to Sao Tome and Principe? 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.
Ireland uses Type G plugs, while Sao Tome and Principe uses Type C and F. 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 Sao Tome and Principe (230V, 50Hz) are the same as Ireland (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.
