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

If you're heading to Venezuela from Papua New Guinea, it's worth checking the power situation before you pack. Different countries use different outlet types and electrical standards, so your devices may not plug in directly when you arrive.

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

The electrical standards differ significantly: Papua New Guinea operates at 240V/50Hz and Venezuela at 120V/60Hz. For single-voltage appliances (hair straighteners, kettles, etc.), this mismatch could damage your device or even be a safety hazard. Always verify your device's voltage rating before plugging in.

Don't forget that Venezuela 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. Papua New Guinea uses Type I plugs and Venezuela uses Type A/B. Since these are incompatible, you will need a travel adapter.
