Benin to Nigeria: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) Adapter Needed
Heading from Benin to Nigeria? Plug types and voltage standards differ between countries, so a little preparation goes a long way. Here's a breakdown of what to expect at the wall socket.
Your Benin plugs (Type C, E) won't fit Nigeria's outlets (Type D, G). You'll want to grab a universal travel adapter or one specifically designed for Nigeria before you depart.
The voltage and frequency in Nigeria (230V, 50Hz) are close to Benin (220V, 50Hz), so your appliances should work without a converter.
Rather than packing bulky converters, consider buying travel-sized dual-voltage versions of appliances you can't live without. For phones and laptops, all you'll need is the right plug adapter since their chargers almost always support worldwide voltage.
