From Somalia to Saint Vincent and the Grenadines
When travelling from Somalia to Saint Vincent and the Grenadines: Some of your Somalia plug types fit in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines (G). Bring a compact adapter for the others. Voltage is different (230V → 110V / 230V). Check your charger label; if it doesn’t list 110V / 230V 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.
