Suriname to Kenya: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) Adapter Needed

Planning a trip from Suriname to Kenya? One of the first things to sort out before you travel is whether your electronics will work at your destination. Power outlets, plug shapes, and voltage standards vary around the world, and Kenya is no exception.

There's no plug compatibility between Suriname and Kenya. Suriname devices use Type A/B/C/F connectors, while Kenya sockets are Type G. An adapter is a must-have for this destination.

Be aware that Suriname runs on 120V at 220V, while Kenya uses 240V at 50Hz. This voltage difference matters for appliances like hair dryers, curling irons, and electric shavers that aren't dual-voltage. Check the label on your devices. If it says "100-240V," you're fine. Otherwise, you'll need a voltage converter.

Rather than packing bulky converters, consider buying travel-sized dual-voltage versions of appliances you can't live without. For phones and laptops, all you'll need is the right plug adapter since their chargers almost always support worldwide voltage.

Frequently Asked Questions
