Can I Use My Nintendo Switch Charger in Singapore?

Q: What plug type does Singapore use?

Singapore uses Type G sockets at 230V / 50Hz.

Yes — your Nintendo Switch charger works in Singapore with just a plug adapter.

Plug adapter needed

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.
