Common questions

Do I need a plug adapter from France to Nigeria?

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

Will my devices work on Nigeria’s voltage?

Nigeria runs at 230V, 50Hz. Dual-voltage chargers (most phones and laptops) are fine; single-voltage devices may need a converter.
