USB 3.0 is generally on an "A" connector, but with a blue instead of black/gray tab.
USB-C is a different physical interface.

So, yes, the USB3 port on your laptop should be compatible with the USB-C connector on the dock. You'll just NEED to make sure you use a quality USB 3.0 (or 3.1) -compatible USB-A to USB-C cable.

My LG V20 has a USB-C port. I can connect it to Type 2 and Type 3 ports on laptops, chargers, in my 1-er and the wife's Pathfinder, etc. Charges much faster on Type 3!
