Barbados Travel Adapters
Type A and Type B • 120 volts • 50 Hz
Barbados is an island country in the Caribbean Sea located east of the Lesser Antilles island chain. Known for its coral limestone landscapes and long history as a British colony, the island developed strong cultural and economic ties with both the United Kingdom and North America. The capital and largest city is Bridgetown, and the official currency is the Barbadian dollar.
Barbados uses mains electricity supplied at about 120 volts at 50 Hz. Wall outlets use North American plug designs, specifically Type A and Type B sockets. Travelers from regions that use different plug types should bring a compatible travel adapter. Visitors from 230-volt countries should confirm that their devices support 100–240V input or use an appropriate voltage converter.

Plug types are listed because they are encountered in at least some installations. Presence may be partial, legacy, mixed, or situational. A travel adapter, also spelled travel adaptor, changes plug fit only; a voltage converter, sometimes searched as a voltage convertor, is needed only for devices that are not dual voltage. No plug type is excluded due to limited or declining use.
