Belize uses 110 V and 220 V in different places. Dual-voltage gear only, please.

What to pack

Your plugs fit some compatible outlets in Belize, but not every listed socket design. An adapter may be needed for the outlet you encounter. Check the actual outlet and preserve any grounding your device requires; hybrid connections may not be grounded.

Mixed voltage
Belize uses 110 V or 220 V in different places. An input rating of "100–240V" covers the listed supply voltage; you still need a suitable plug or adapter. Check the local socket supply before use.

The destination may use a different frequency (50 → 60 Hz). Check your device's input rating for the local frequency; a plug adapter does not change it.

  • Phone charger

    Basically all modern USB chargers are 100–240V. Adapter only.

  • Laptop charger

    Look for "100–240V" on the brick. It's almost always there.

  • Camera battery charger

    Usually dual voltage. Check the tiny print.

  • Electric toothbrush

    Many are dual voltage, some are not. Check the base.

  • Electric shaver

    Often dual voltage. Often. Check.

  • CPAP machine

    Most modern ones auto-switch, but confirm before you rely on it to breathe.

  • Hair straightener / curler

    Some have a voltage switch. Many don't. Fire is a bad hairstyle.

  • Hair dryer

    Usually single voltage and very power-hungry. Buy a travel one or use the hotel's.

  • Kettle / coffee maker

    Single voltage, high wattage. Leave it home. Buy coffee abroad like a local.

  • Anything with a heating element

    If it gets hot on purpose, assume it's single voltage.
