United States to Antigua and Barbuda: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) No Adapter Needed
Planning a trip from United States to Antigua and Barbuda? 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 Antigua and Barbuda is no exception.
Since United States and Antigua and Barbuda both support Type A, B plugs, you can use your chargers and appliances without a travel adapter. One less thing to worry about.
Be aware that United States runs on 120V at 60Hz, while Antigua and Barbuda uses 230V at 60Hz. 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.
A universal travel adapter with multiple plug configurations is a smart investment if you travel frequently. For Antigua and Barbuda specifically, look for one that supports Type A/B outlets. USB charging ports built into the adapter are a nice bonus.
