Common questions

Do I need a plug adapter from France to Kenya?

Yes. Kenya uses Type G sockets, which France plugs do not fit, so pack a suitable adapter.

Will my devices work on Kenya’s voltage?

Kenya runs at 240V, 50Hz. Dual-voltage chargers (most phones and laptops) are fine; single-voltage devices may need a converter.
