From Montserrat to Gambia
When travelling from Montserrat to Gambia: Some of your Montserrat plug types fit in Gambia (G). Bring a compact adapter for the others. Voltage matches at 230V, so a basic plug adapter is enough for most devices. Frequency differs (60Hz → 50Hz). Modern phone and laptop chargers are usually fine, but some clocks, motors, and appliances may behave incorrectly.
