That is correct. For example, I bought my 20D while on vacation in the 
US in October and have no problem using the battery charger here in 
Europe. The vast majority of battery chargers for devices that people 
travel with (cameras, mobile phones, laptops etc.) will accept any 
voltage between 100 and 240V. Furthermore, the voltage is indicated on 
the charger, so it is easy to double-check this.

The plug adapters can be purchased in places like CompUSA, in shops 
selling luggage and other travel accessories, or in the convenience 
stores at the airports.
