Niger to Uganda: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) Adapter Needed

Heading from Niger to Uganda? 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 Niger plugs (Type C, D, E) won't fit Uganda's outlets (Type G). You'll want to grab a universal travel adapter or one specifically designed for Uganda before you depart.

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

Don't forget that Uganda 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

Yes. Niger uses Type C/D/E plugs and Uganda uses Type G. Since these are incompatible, you will need a travel adapter.
