Recommended Travel Adaptor for Can Tho
After trying many adaptors ourselves, one thing is clear: here you’ll need more than one, since different sockets are in use. We’ve narrowed it down to the safest and most reliable models.
Realised abroad that you’ve left your adaptor behind? You’ll often find them in airports and shops nearby. Still, carrying your own is cheaper and more reliable.
Can Tho is commonly combined with trips to Cambodia and Thailand. Worth checking those pages too — plugs and voltage may not be the same.
Sockets in Can Tho
The plug types you’ll find in Can Tho are Type A, C, and D plugs and sockets.
Type A
Type A sockets have two flat parallel pins and no grounding. Unlike Type G, they don’t include an earth pin, which makes them less secure.
Type C
Type C sockets have two round pins and no grounding. Unlike Type G, they take a slimmer plug without an earth pin or fuse.
Type D
Type D sockets have three large round pins in a triangular shape. Unlike Type G, they lack a fuse and the pins are round rather than rectangular.
Do You Need a Voltage Converter?
A power converter is only required when voltages differ. In Can Tho it’s about the same as at home in Britain, so you can skip it.
Always check the voltage label before plugging in abroad; if it reads ‘100–240 V, 50/60 Hz’, your device will usually work without a converter.
Top Travel Essentials to Take With You
Every seasoned traveller knows it’s the small hacks that matter. A luggage scale stops you from playing guessing games with your suitcase, a power bank is a lifesaver on long journeys, and packing cubes make your bag easy to manage. We’ve tested them all, and we wouldn’t travel without them.
