How to check your phone charger
Look for the "Input" rating on the plug, power brick or the handle near the cable:
- 100–240V ~ 50/60Hz – works anywhere in the world with a plug adapter.
- A switch marked 120/230 or 110/220 – dual-voltage: set it to match the country before plugging in.
- 220–240V only – fine in the UK and Europe, but not on Jamaica's 110V supply.
Plugs in Jamaica
Yes. You'll need a US-style (type A/B) adapter.

Common questions
Can I use my UK phone charger in Jamaica?
Almost every phone charger is rated 100–240V (check the small print on the plug or power brick), so it works on the 110V supply in Jamaica with just a plug adapter. You'll need a US-style (type A/B) adapter.
What voltage is Jamaica?
110V at 50Hz. The UK is 230V at 50Hz.
Do I need a voltage converter for my phone charger?
No, as long as the label says 100–240V – nearly all do.
