From Cuba to Germany
When travelling from Cuba to Germany: Some of your Cuba plug types fit in Germany (C). Bring a compact adapter for the others. Voltage is different (110V / 220V → 230V). Check your charger label; if it doesn’t list 230V you’ll also need a voltage converter. Frequency differs (60Hz → 50Hz). Modern phone and laptop chargers are usually fine, but some clocks, motors, and appliances may behave incorrectly.
