Can I Use My Nintendo Switch Charger in Norway?
Yes — with an adapter.
Your device handles this country's voltage, but the plug shape is different. You need a plug adapter to fit the sockets here. A plug adapter only changes the shape — it does not change voltage, and that's fine in this case because your device already supports the local voltage.
The short answer
The Nintendo Switch USB-C charger is dual-voltage (100–240V). It charges safely worldwide with just a plug adapter. Avoid cheap no-name chargers that can flake on the dock.
Norway runs 230V at 50Hz. Norway runs 230V at 50Hz with Type C/F sockets. Dual-voltage devices need only a plug adapter.
