Rwanda to Guinea-Bissau: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) Adapter Needed

Heading from Rwanda to Guinea-Bissau? 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.

Both Rwanda and Guinea-Bissau use Type C plugs, so your devices should plug right in. An adapter isn't strictly necessary for this trip.

The voltage and frequency in Guinea-Bissau (220V, 50Hz) are close to Rwanda (230V, 50Hz), so your appliances should work without a converter.

Don't forget that Guinea-Bissau 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.
