Unfortunately, this is probably not practical.
Though electric clothes dryers are made as wholly 240 volt 50Hz units - for use in Europe, Asia and elsewhere in the world - all the residential dryers I have been exposed to in the US are hybrid 120/240 volt units.
By this I mean that, though the heating elements are 240 volt, the motor and controls are all 120 volt.
You could probably use the dryer if you installed a 240 volt primary transformer that had a 240/120 volt secondary. As far as I know, the dryer components do not rely on the 60 cycle frequency for anything, so the fact that the target source is 50 cycles shouldn't matter. [ ... though it may impact the motors in other ways ... heating, etc.]
I suggest you contact the manufacturer of your dryer and ask if they can provide any input or guidance.
In any case, you would probably be better off selling your old dryer here and buying one there, as the costs of shipping and buying a transformer setup would cost more than buying a good condition secondhand dryer or even a new one! [I would think!]

As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.
Before you do any work yourself,
on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,
always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.

It's my understanding that a US-marketed clothes drier has a 240-V heating element but a 120-V motor (perhaps someone else can confirm this?). If so, then it would not be very practical to convert it to a single voltage for international use.

This is a good one. and it works. fill your empty washer with hot hot hot water, boil some if you have to, put in one gallon of white vinegar, run a wash. When you look in a washer all you see is the outside of the drum what you don't see is all the scum sticking to the inside of the drum, hot water and white vinegar takes care of this
Essentially it contains a screw (under the handle) driving a round rubber washer onto the incoming pipe. This blocks the supply, but also slowly destroys the washer after a few years. At this point the washer can be easily replaced.
You didn't mention whether the voltages are single phase or three phase or whether it is a commercial machine or one used in the home. I am assuming that you are asking about a single phase washer. That being said yes, 208 volts can be stepped up to 440 volts. To have the washer converted would mean finding a 440 single phase motor with the identical frame type that would fit the same configuration that the 208 volt single phase motor now resides in. The control voltage for the internal controls would also have to be changed out to the new voltage. The transformer would cost as much as a new machine so that is out of the question. You might want to price out a new 440 volt machine, sell the old 208 machine and the money that you get for the old machine, apply it to the cost of the new machine.
A load of clothes is a bunch of clothes put into a washer
a very reliable clothes washer.
Can you change a regular washing machine into a portable to hook up to the kitchen sink
The difference between a front load washer and regular washer is that a front load washer has a door in front were clothes are loaded and that is also where washer settings are located. The regular washer is usually a top load where clothes are loaded on top of the washer.
A dish washer is almost the same as a clothes washer as it has the same concept however it washes dishes
Yes
If the colors of your clothes bled in the washer, don't put them in the dryer. The dryer will set the dye into the clothes. Take the lightly colored items that were stained by the bleeding dye and put them back into the washer without detergent on a hot water cycle.
put them in the washer (clothes washer); i am serious it really works;
If Front load washer tear clothes, then please check the water level, If the level is less it may be tearing the clothes. 2. Please dont overload
no
End of clothes washer drain 1 1/2 - 2" above rim of sink it drains into.
Take the diaper out and wash the clothes again!
