Main Voltage in Pakistan

Do I Need a Voltage Converter in Pakistan?

Pakistan 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 Pakistan socket without a voltage converter, as long as the plug shape fits.

Will my Indian charger work in Pakistan?

Yes, your Indian charger works in Pakistan without any adapter. Pakistan uses Type C and D sockets at 230V/50Hz. Your Indian phone and laptop chargers are dual-voltage (the label reads 100–240V), so they handle Pakistan voltage without any issue. The only question is plug shape — your Indian Type C and D plugs fit Pakistan sockets directly, so just plug in and charge. You do not need a voltage converter — Pakistan's 230V is the same as India's 230V.
