Travel adapter from Belize to Mauritius

⚠️

Adapter Required

Yes — coming from Belize, you will need a travel adapter for Mauritius. Belize uses Type A/Type B plugs, and Mauritius uses Type C/Type E/Type G, so the pin shapes will not fit any wall socket. Voltages differ (110 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. The mains frequency is also different (60 Hz vs 50 Hz). This rarely matters for electronics but can affect motor-driven devices like clocks and shavers.
