From Brazil to Panama
When travelling from Brazil to Panama: None of your Brazil plug types fit in Panama. You will need a travel adapter. Voltage is different (127V / 220V → 120V). Check your charger label; if it doesn’t list 120V you’ll also need a voltage converter. Frequency is the same at 60Hz.
