Rwanda to Madagascar: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) Adapter Needed

If you're heading to Madagascar from Rwanda, 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.

Good news: Rwanda and Madagascar share compatible plug types (Type C). Your existing plugs should fit directly into Madagascar's outlets without any adapter needed.

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

When packing for Madagascar, bring at least one adapter per room if you're traveling with others. Airport shops often sell them at a markup, so ordering one online beforehand saves money. A small power strip from home can also multiply a single adapter into several outlets.
