From Tajikistan to Aruba
When travelling from Tajikistan to Aruba: None of your Tajikistan plug types fit in Aruba. You will need a travel adapter. Voltage is different (230V → 120V). Check your charger label; if it doesn’t list 120V you’ll also need a voltage converter. Frequency differs (50Hz → 60Hz). Modern phone and laptop chargers are usually fine, but some clocks, motors, and appliances may behave incorrectly.
