Main Voltage in Indonesia

Do I Need a Voltage Converter in Indonesia?

Indonesia runs on a main voltage of 230 volts at a frequency of 50 Hz. This is effectively the same as India's 230V/50Hz. You can plug any Indian device into a Indonesia socket without a voltage converter, as long as the plug shape fits.

Will my Indian charger work in Indonesia?

Yes, but it depends on which socket your hotel has. Indonesia uses Type C and F sockets at 230V/50Hz. Your Indian phone and laptop chargers are dual-voltage (the label reads 100–240V), so they handle Indonesia voltage without any issue. The only question is plug shape — your Indian plug fits Type C sockets directly, but will not fit Type F sockets without an adapter. You do not need a voltage converter — Indonesia's 230V is the same as India's 230V.
