Trinidad and Tobago to Costa Rica: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) No Adapter Needed
Traveling from Trinidad and Tobago to Costa Rica means crossing into a different electrical system. Before you leave, take a moment to understand the plug types and voltage used in Costa Rica so you can keep all your devices charged and ready.
Both Trinidad and Tobago and Costa Rica use Type A/B plugs, so your devices should plug right in. An adapter isn't strictly necessary for this trip.
On the voltage front, Trinidad and Tobago (115V, 60Hz) and Costa Rica (120V, 60Hz) are very similar. You shouldn't need a voltage converter for your electronics.
A universal travel adapter with multiple plug configurations is a smart investment if you travel frequently. For Costa Rica specifically, look for one that supports Type A/B outlets. USB charging ports built into the adapter are a nice bonus.
