Burundi Travel Adapters

Type C and Type E • 220–230 volts • 50 Hz

Burundi is a small landlocked country in East Africa bordered by Rwanda, Tanzania, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Much of the country lies on a high plateau with hills and mountains, while the western border runs along the northeastern shore of Lake Tanganyika. The largest city and economic center is Bujumbura, while Gitega serves as the political capital. Burundi has a long cultural history in the African Great Lakes region and is known for its traditional drumming heritage.

Burundi uses mains electricity supplied at about 220–230 volts at 50 Hz. Wall outlets use Type C and Type E sockets. Travelers from regions that use different plug types should bring a compatible travel adapter. Visitors should confirm that their electronic devices support 100–240V input or use an appropriate voltage converter if necessary.

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.
