Is ttest2 with the 'Vartype' set as 'unequal' essentially the same as a Welch's t-test?

Hi all,
Just like to confirm that I've understand the documentation for using the ttest2 (https://www.mathworks.com/help/stats/ttest2.html) correctly.
Am I right to assume that when I set 'Vartype' as 'unequal' (essentially saying that variance of samples are NOT known to be the same), ttest2 becomes a Welch's t-test?
Hope you could help me confirm this.
Thank you
