Different from many other countries, the electricity voltage used in mainland China is generally 220V, 50HZ and AC. The electricity voltage used in Hong Kong and Taiwan are 200V and 110V respectively.

If you plan to bring your electric devices during your stay in China, you will have to use a converter. As the shape of a socket varies between countries, a portable plug adaptor may also be necessary. You may bring them from your local countries as well as purchase them in China.
