When to schedule
Standard business hours (9 AM–5 PM, Mon–Fri) in Hong Kong Time and Brasilia Time don't overlap on the same weekday. Brasilia Time is 11 hours behind Hong Kong Time.
With some flexibility, there’s a workable window outside standard hours:
- 6 PM–8 PM in Hong Kong Time (7 AM–9 AM in Brasilia Time) — suggest 7:00 PM Hong Kong Time (8:00 AM Brasilia Time).
This means an early start or late finish for one side, but it’s a reasonable slot for a one-off meeting.
Public holidays in 2026
National public holidays can affect availability — a counterpart is likely off work on their own holidays, so it's worth planning meetings and deadlines around them.
