Can I bring electrical appliances?

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
All ships have a 220 volt power supply. Accordingly, if you are coming from a country with a different volt power normally used you should check to see if your computer, razor, radio, etc., have a 110-220V-option switch. If not, you will need a converter. If you are from the U.S., you will need a plug converter (square to round prongs, but you can usually find one on the ship). A small, portable, AM/FM/SW radio is nice to have along, so you can stay in touch with what's going on in the world.

Question 2. Can I bring all of my small appliances?

Expats in Italy - Living in Italy FAQ
above, yes you could but you will probably need a transformer. Some items though do have a 110/220 switch so check it out. If this is the case then you will probably only need a plug converter. North American power is 120V 60 cycles. European is 220V 50 cycles. The voltage can be dealt with easily with a step down transformer but the cycles can cause problems. something like 110-240v 50-60 This should work just fine. You may need to flip a switch or you may need a new plug.
