Benin Travel Adapters

Benin is a country in West Africa located along the Gulf of Guinea between Togo and Nigeria. Known for its historical role in the Kingdom of Dahomey and as part of the region once referred to as the Slave Coast, Benin has a diverse cultural heritage and strong regional trade connections. The capital is Porto-Novo, and the currency is the West African CFA franc.

Benin uses mains electricity supplied at about 230 volts at 50 Hz. Wall outlets use European plug designs, specifically Type C and Type E sockets. Travelers from regions that use different plug types should bring a compatible travel adapter. Visitors from 120V countries should confirm that their devices support 100–240V input or use an appropriate voltage converter.
