Solomon Islands to Congo (Congo-Kinshasa): Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) Adapter Needed

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

The voltage and frequency in Congo (Congo-Kinshasa) (220V, 50Hz) are close to Solomon Islands (230V, 50Hz), so your appliances should work without a converter.

A universal travel adapter with multiple plug configurations is a smart investment if you travel frequently. For Congo (Congo-Kinshasa) specifically, look for one that supports Type C/D/E outlets. USB charging ports built into the adapter are a nice bonus.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Solomon Islands uses Type G/I plugs and Congo (Congo-Kinshasa) uses Type C/D/E. Since these are incompatible, you will need a travel adapter.
