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

If you're heading to Guinea-Bissau from Sri Lanka, 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.

Sri Lanka uses Type D and G plugs, while Guinea-Bissau uses Type C. Since there is no overlap, you will need a travel adapter to plug in your devices. Make sure to pick one up before your trip or at the airport.

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

When packing for Guinea-Bissau, 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.

Frequently Asked Questions
