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

Heading from Namibia to Papua New Guinea? 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.

Your Namibia plugs (Type D, M) won't fit Papua New Guinea's outlets (Type I). You'll want to grab a universal travel adapter or one specifically designed for Papua New Guinea before you depart.

The voltage and frequency in Papua New Guinea (240V, 50Hz) are close to Namibia (220V, 50Hz), so your appliances should work without a converter.

Don't forget that Papua New Guinea 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.
