From Philippines to Bahamas
When travelling from Philippines to Bahamas: Some of your Philippines plug types fit in Bahamas (A, B). Bring a compact adapter for the others. Voltage is different (230V → 120V). Check your charger label; if it doesn’t list 120V you’ll also need a voltage converter. Frequency is the same at 60Hz.
