From Barbados to Latvia
When travelling from Barbados to Latvia: None of your Barbados plug types fit in Latvia. You will need a travel adapter. Voltage is different (115V → 230V). Check your charger label; if it doesn’t list 230V you’ll also need a voltage converter. Frequency is the same at 50Hz.
