There is no need for a voltage converter in Tajikistan, when traveling from Netherlands.
Frequency converter neededPay attention to the frequency difference.

To confirm, check if your devices require a voltage converter by looking at the 'INPUT' label, typically found on the power adapter or charger. If the label shows "INPUT: 100-240V, 50/60 Hz," the device is built to handle different voltage and frequency ranges, meaning you'll only need a plug adapter for the outlets in Tajikistan. This is typical for devices such as notebooks, smartphones, digital cameras, and also for tablets, e-readers, and some battery chargers.
