Power Plug Guide Will your devices work abroad?

Travel adapter from Venezuela to Thailand

✅

No Adapter Needed

You will not need a plug adapter — Venezuela and Thailand share at least one common plug shape (Type A, Type B). Voltages differ (120 V at home vs 230 V abroad), so check the label on each device. Most modern dual-voltage chargers handle the swing without a converter, but heating appliances usually do not. The mains frequency is also different (60 Hz vs 50 Hz). This rarely matters for electronics but can affect motor-driven devices like clocks and shavers.

More about plugs in Thailand

In Thailand, the standard power plug is Type A and Type B and Type C and Type O. The country runs on 230 volts at 50 Hz. That means wall sockets in Thailand can be one of 4 different shapes — Type A, Type B, Type C, Type O, and your plug needs to physically match the socket to fit.
