Uruguay to Sao Tome and Principe: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) Adapter Needed

If you're heading to Sao Tome and Principe from Uruguay, 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.

Good news: Uruguay and Sao Tome and Principe share compatible plug types (Type C and F). Your existing plugs should fit directly into Sao Tome and Principe's outlets without any adapter needed.

The voltage and frequency in Sao Tome and Principe (230V, 50Hz) are the same as Uruguay (230V, 50Hz), so your appliances should work without a converter.

Don't forget that Sao Tome and Principe hotel rooms sometimes have a universal shaver socket in the bathroom, but these low-wattage outlets aren't suitable for high-draw devices. For reliable charging, use the standard wall outlets with a proper adapter.
