Electrical Current

In Da Nang, as well as throughout Vietnam, the standard voltage is 220V with a frequency of 50Hz.

The plugs commonly used are Type A (two flat parallel pins), Type C (two round pins), and sometimes Type F (two round pins with side grounding clips). Travelers using different plug types will need a plug adapter.

Most modern electronics — including laptops, mobile phones, and chargers — support dual voltage (110–240V), so typically only an adapter is needed rather than a converter. Always check your device’s specifications before use.

Meetings arranged before conference

Before the conference begins you will receive a full conference pack including the attendees list. The Freight Club will facilitate arranging all your conference meetings before you arrive.

Annual General Meeting

The Freight Club is run by members, for members. An annual update on progress within the organisation is presented at the conference including an open forum for all members to discuss future strategies.
