Can I Use My CPAP Machine in Thailand?

Q: What plug type does Thailand use?

Thailand uses Type A/B/C/O sockets at 230V / 50Hz.

Yes — your CPAP machine works in Thailand as-is.

Good to go

Your device's voltage range matches this country, and the plug fits. You can use it directly — no adapter or converter needed. As a final check, confirm the voltage range printed on the device label.

Based on what's typical for this device — confirm on the label to be sure.

Frequency mismatch (device 60Hz vs 50Hz): verify your medical device (e.g. CPAP) is rated 50/60Hz before use.

Why

Your CPAP machine's voltage range matches Thailand's 230V and the plug fits, so you can use it directly — no adapter or converter needed. As a final check, confirm the voltage range printed on the device label.

Thailand runs 230⁠V / 50⁠Hz. Thailand runs 230V at 50Hz but its sockets often accept US-style Type A/B plugs — a dangerous false familiarity. The plug may fit, but a US single-voltage device will still overheat on 230V.
