Maldives to Guinea-Bissau: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) Adapter Needed

Traveling from Maldives to Guinea-Bissau means crossing into a different electrical system. Before you leave, take a moment to understand the plug types and voltage used in Guinea-Bissau so you can keep all your devices charged and ready.

Both Maldives and Guinea-Bissau use Type C plugs, so your devices should plug right in. An adapter isn't strictly necessary for this trip.

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

Don't forget that Guinea-Bissau hotel rooms sometimes have a universal shaver socket in the bathroom, but these low-wattage outlets aren't suitable for high-draw devices. For reliable charging, use the standard wall outlets with a proper adapter.

Frequently Asked Questions

Not necessarily. Both countries support Type C plugs, so your devices should fit Guinea-Bissau's outlets directly.
