Didn’t pack an adaptor? You can still grab one when you arrive. Still, it’s better to bring your own than risk paying too much for something unreliable.
Djibouti is usually visited together with Ethiopia and Eritrea. Plug types can vary slightly, so it’s worth checking before you travel.
Sockets in Djibouti
In Djibouti, you’ll find Type C and E plugs and sockets.
Type C
Type C sockets have two round pins and no grounding. Unlike Type G, they take a slimmer plug without an earth pin or fuse.
Type E
Type E sockets have two round pins and a hole for the socket’s earth pin. UK Type G plugs do not fit into Type E sockets.
Do You Need a Voltage Converter?
A voltage converter only helps if the supply is different. In Djibouti the mains voltage lines up with the UK, so there’s no need.
Don’t forget to check the voltage label on your device before use overseas. If it’s stamped ‘100–240 V, 50/60 Hz’, it’ll work in most places without a converter.
Top Travel Essentials to Take With You
It’s often the overlooked bits of kit that help the most. A luggage scale spares you the stress of overweight bags, a power bank keeps you going when outlets are scarce, and packing cubes keep everything in its place. We’ve tested them on the road, and they really earn their keep.
