Do you need a voltage converter in Saint Kitts and Nevis?

⚡

Mind the voltage. The standard voltage in Saint Kitts and Nevis (230V) is much higher than in the United States (120V). Without a converter you risk serious damage to your devices.

Many chargers (phones, laptops, cameras) are labelled INPUT: 100–240V, 50/60Hz — those work anywhere and only need a plug adapter, never a converter. Always check the label.
