Gambia to Senegal: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) Adapter Needed

If you're heading to Senegal from Gambia, 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.

Gambia uses Type G plugs, while Senegal uses Type C and D and E and K. Since there is no overlap, you will need a travel adapter to plug in your devices. Make sure to pick one up before your trip or at the airport.

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

Don't forget that Senegal 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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Gambia uses Type G plugs and Senegal uses Type C/D/E/K. Since these are incompatible, you will need a travel adapter.
