Tanzania to Cameroon: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) Adapter Needed
Getting ready for your journey from Tanzania to Cameroon? Electrical compatibility is easy to overlook, but bringing the wrong plug or forgetting an adapter can leave you scrambling at your hotel. Here's what you need to know.
Your Tanzania plugs (Type D, G) won't fit Cameroon's outlets (Type C, E). You'll want to grab a universal travel adapter or one specifically designed for Cameroon before you depart.
The voltage and frequency in Cameroon (220V, 50Hz) are close to Tanzania (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 Cameroon specifically, look for one that supports Type C/E outlets. USB charging ports built into the adapter are a nice bonus.
