Panama to Antigua and Barbuda: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) No Adapter Needed
Getting ready for your journey from Panama to Antigua and Barbuda? Electrical compatibility is easy to overlook, but bringing the wrong plug or forgetting an adapter can leave you scrambling at your hotel. Here's what you need to know.
Since Panama and Antigua and Barbuda both support Type A, B plugs, you can use your chargers and appliances without a travel adapter. One less thing to worry about.
Be aware that Panama runs on 120V at 60Hz, while Antigua and Barbuda uses 230V at 60Hz. This voltage difference matters for appliances like hair dryers, curling irons, and electric shavers that aren't dual-voltage. Check the label on your devices. If it says "100-240V," you're fine. Otherwise, you'll need a voltage converter.
A universal travel adapter with multiple plug configurations is a smart investment if you travel frequently. For Antigua and Barbuda specifically, look for one that supports Type A/B outlets. USB charging ports built into the adapter are a nice bonus.
