Travel Tips for India

Voltage Compatibility: India uses 230V voltage. This is higher voltage. Devices from 100-120V countries will need a voltage converter unless they support dual voltage (100-240V).

Adapter Needed: You'll need a Type C or Type D adapter to plug in your devices if your plugs don't match these types.

Frequency: The electrical frequency is 50Hz. Most electronics can handle both 50Hz and 60Hz, but some clocks and motors may run differently.
