Bolivia electrical outlets : need a travel adapter?
To ensure that your devices can be plugged into the power sockets in Bolivia, it is recommended to buy a power adapter that supports both type A and type C sockets.
In Bolivia, there are two main types of power plugs and outlets: Type A and Type C. Both types are used in airports, hotels, restaurants, etc., but they differ in terms of shape. Type A: Type A plugs have two flat prongs on either side of the plug.
