Where are you travelling from?

Pick your home country to see if your plugs fit in Brunei.

Travel adapters for Brunei

Most modern phones, laptops, cameras, and tablets are rated for 100–240 V, so you only need a simple plug-shape adapter when the voltage matches what your charger supports. Because Brunei runs at the higher 240 V range, travelers from the United States, Canada, or Japan must check the label on each device. Anything marked “120 V only” will be destroyed if plugged in without a step-down voltage converter. For a Type G socket, a universal travel adapter or a region-specific adapter is enough for chargers that handle dual voltage.

Frequently asked questions

What plug does Brunei use?

Brunei uses Type G plugs and runs at 240 volts, 50 Hz.

Do I need a travel adapter for Brunei?

Yes, if your home country does not use Type G. Most modern phone and laptop chargers handle 100–240 V, so a simple plug-shape adapter is enough.

What voltage is used in Brunei?

Mains voltage in Brunei is 240 V at 50 Hz.

Can I use my phone or laptop charger in Brunei?

Almost always yes. Modern phone, laptop, tablet and camera chargers are dual-voltage (rated 100–240 V), so they handle Brunei's 240 V automatically. You only need a plug-shape adapter, not a voltage converter. Check the small print on the charger to confirm.
