Virtually every small battery charger now sold in the U.S. will work at up
to
220V, and many will go to 240V. You'll need an adapter, of course, since
we
use a different plug/socket arrangement, but I'd be very surprised if any
chargers you bought here failed to work in Europe.
I did a quick check of my chargers, and the only one I found that uses
only
120V is a AA battery charger that's at least 15 or 20 years old.
And if Spanish is your language, you'll find that most photographic
equipment
sold here comes with instructions in both English and Spanish.
