The local supply in Trinidad and Tobago is 115 V / 60 Hz. Your home power standard is compatible on both voltage and frequency, so no voltage converter is required. Most common devices can be used safely as long as the plug fits the socket or you use the correct travel adapter.
Trinidad and Tobago is a two-island nation at the southern end of the Caribbean chain, known for its extraordinary Carnival celebration, diverse wildlife and birdwatching, and a rich Creole food and music culture.
There, the main plug types A and B are used and the standard supply is 115 V at 60 Hz. In most cases you will not need a travel adapter if your plugs match the local socket type. Most modern devices support 100โ240 V.
Tip Trinidad and Tobago uses type A and B flat-pin sockets. Travelers from Europe, Australia and most of Asia will need a flat-pin adapter. A universal adapter is particularly useful if you are combining this destination with other Caribbean islands that use different socket types.
Do I need a travel adapter in Trinidad and Tobago?
No, a travel adapter is not necessary, because the same socket types are used as in your home country.
Can I charge my smartphone in Trinidad and Tobago?
Yes, you can usually charge your smartphone without any problems, because most phone chargers support a wide voltage and frequency range. A travel adapter is necessary because the local sockets do not support Type C plugs.
Which travel adapters are recommended for Trinidad and Tobago?
If you are traveling to more than one country, we recommend a universal travel adapter. Good options are World Adapter 1 and World Adapter 2.
