When to schedule
Standard business hours (9 AM–5 PM, Mon–Fri) in Jakarta and Panama City don't overlap on the same weekday. Panama City is 12 hours behind Jakarta.
With some flexibility, there’s a workable window outside standard hours:
- 7 PM–8 PM in Jakarta (7 AM–8 AM in Panama City) — suggest 7:00 PM Jakarta (7:00 AM Panama City).
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.
