Travel adapter from Barbados to Cyprus
Adapter Required
Yes — coming from Barbados, you will need a travel adapter for Cyprus. Barbados uses Type A/Type B plugs, and Cyprus uses Type G, so the pin shapes will not fit any wall socket. Voltages differ (115 V at home vs 230 V abroad), so check the label on each device. Most modern dual-voltage chargers handle the swing without a converter, but heating appliances usually do not.
