Complete Guide to Power Plugs in Suriname
Suriname uses Type C and Type F power plugs and electrical outlets. The standard voltage is 127V/220V with a frequency of 60Hz. This is similar to North American standards, making it easier for US and Canadian travelers.
Do You Need a Travel Adapter for Suriname?
Suriname uses plug types that may be compatible with your devices, but we still recommend carrying a universal travel adapter for convenience.
Voltage Converter vs. Plug Adapter
It's important to understand the difference: a plug adapter only changes the physical shape of your plug to fit Suriname's outlets, while a voltage converter actually changes the electrical current. Suriname's 127V/220V is compatible with most devices.
Tips for Travelers to Suriname
- Pack a Type C/Type F adapter before traveling - Suriname's outlets won't accept US plugs
- Modern electronics with 100-240V support work safely on Suriname's 127V/220V power - check your charger's label
- Traffic drives on the left in Suriname - look right first when crossing streets
- Stick to bottled or filtered water in Suriname - tap water isn't recommended for drinking
