only if the voltage required on your washer and dryer set are the same in the part of asia you will be in. Also you may need to change out the plug

It depends on where you go in Asia. European appliances normally operate on 220 Volts to 240 Volts / 50Hz. Many Asian countries also operate on the same voltage and frequency as Europe. But not all. Japan for example uses 110 Volts to 120 Volts / 60Hz as we do in the USA. It would be wise to check with someone in the Country your are traveling to before you go to the expense of shipping the appliances to an area where they can't be used. Purchasing a transformer to convert to the correct voltage is one option, but transformers will not work if the motors, timers or other critical components of the appliances are sensitive to the frequency.

Ask someone in the consulate for that country. You may need an adaptor.
