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