From Guadeloupe to Guyana
When travelling from Guadeloupe to Guyana: None of your Guadeloupe plug types fit in Guyana. You will need a travel adapter. Voltage is different (230V → 110V / 220V). Check your charger label; if it doesn’t list 110V / 220V you’ll also need a voltage converter. Frequency differs (50Hz → 50Hz / 60Hz). Modern phone and laptop chargers are usually fine, but some clocks, motors, and appliances may behave incorrectly.

Practical tips
- A North-American-style Type A/B adapter covers every socket in use.
- The supply switches between 110V / 220V depending on the building, so verify the outlet before connecting anything voltage-sensitive.
- Frequency varies (50Hz / 60Hz). Modern electronics don’t care, but motors and clocks that depend on frequency can behave oddly.
Frequently asked questions
- Will my Guadeloupe plug work in Guyana?
- No. None of your Guadeloupe plugs (Type C, Type E) fit in Guyana sockets (Type A, Type B), so you will need a travel adapter.
- What plug type does Guyana use?
- Guyana uses Type A, Type B. The supply is 110V / 220V at 50Hz / 60Hz.
- Do I need a voltage converter for Guyana when travelling from Guadeloupe?
- Guyana runs on 110V / 220V, while Guadeloupe uses 230V. Check your charger label for a 100 to 240V rating; if it does not list 110V / 220V you will also need a voltage converter.
- Is the electrical frequency in Guyana the same as Guadeloupe?
- Frequency in Guyana is 50Hz / 60Hz, while Guadeloupe uses 50Hz. Modern phone and laptop chargers handle either, but clocks, motors, and some heating appliances may behave incorrectly.
