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

Heading from Nicaragua to Cameroon? 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.

Nicaragua uses Type A and B plugs, while Cameroon uses Type C and E. 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.

Voltage is another key difference. Nicaragua uses 120V while Cameroon uses 220V. If your device only supports one voltage, using it with the wrong supply could cause overheating or permanent damage. Look for "Input: 100-240V" on your charger. Most modern phone and laptop chargers support this range.

Most modern phone chargers, laptop adapters, and camera chargers are designed to handle 100-240V input, so they'll work anywhere with just a plug adapter. Heat-producing appliances like hair dryers and flat irons are often single-voltage, so check before you plug them in abroad.

Frequently Asked Questions

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